A few days ago a fellow Marine warrant officer contacted me about a talented field Marine who's creating art for his battalion over in Iraq. Almost every unit has it's Lance Corporal Van Gogh, the kid who designs tatoos for his buddies, turns high school prom pictures into frameable sketches and creates the unit's Christmas card. I know this because long ago I was that guy. From time to time I hear about these talented Marines and this one, Lance Corporal Max Uriarte, has got what it takes to be a combat artist.
Here's a sample of his work.

Lance Corporal Uriarte definitely has what it takes in talent to be a combat artist.
I wonder what it would take for a Corps. wide exhibition of art submitted by guys like Uriarte?
His work is great.
Great talent there. Thanks for sharing, maybe we will see him in print one of these days.
