    Exploring Contract Positions

    Jun 8, 2018 ·

    Work in Progress

    In the studio today. Progress on this painting about the practice of hiring outside contractors to take the place of military personnel overseas and fighting in wars. This makes the numbers of our military look lower than they actually are. I'll share more facts and figures later when I finish this project. 18 x 24 inches college and acrylic paint on canvas.
