The Art of War

[jcterminal]

Let me apologize if I put this in the wrong forum, but I consider this a discovery of fine art. If the mods know of a better place, pls move it.

At least one commander told him "Follow the soldiers' instructions, because they'll put their lives at risk to save you." But no one tried to censor his drawings or discourage him from going out on missions."

Steve Mumford is a New York painter who was embedded as a "combat artist" in Iraq. The archives of his Baghdad Journal make for fascinating reading. He has recently published a large book of the art he created on this voyage.

These are great, liked his inked ones a lot, as his colourwork is not very convincing. Pictures appear incredibly authenthic though.

neat.

well to me for the 2nd pic - the guy against the post standin up seems to have a bit too bright of a face and doesnt match the rest as well and sticks out a bit like a cartoon.
