He is good, good, good!

Less dramatic (some might say overly dramatic) than Floherty (American WWII) but with the same command of pen-and-ink line.

The ink-and-wash technique and the picturesque atmosphere is reminiscent of Ardizzone (British WWII) but Ardizzone never handled human figures convincingly, IMNSHO.

He reminds me of Harvey Dunn (American WWI), my favorite combat artist, but without the monumental weight.

I like him, and I hope we see more of his work.

Where is that middle image set? Reminds me of Moore's subway drawings from WWII, but the setting is very different.
