This is fantastic! There is hope for us after all.

The link isn't working for me, but if it is the guy that I think it is, he does portraits of fallen soldiers for their surviving loved ones doesn't he? Great guy.

The artist is actually a woman but you got it right. She lives in Utah, too.

I saw this on our local news a while back. She does an amazing job of capturing the soldier's personalities.

She really is a saint, isn't she?

Just Dave said...

I think so, yes. I really feel a bit sorry for her. She seems to be taking in all of the pain of all of the survivors.
