I have no artistic talent at all. I think that is why I admire those who do so much.
That one looks like a photograph it is so good.

It’s not just the realism, accuracy and detail, it’s the spirit in the pictures.
Love it.

"I aint got one of them fancy uniforms ..." I can get the uniform. But at 65, I would bear little similarity to the subject in the painting except for the rifle. Which is perhaps the artist's point.

The fact that it was self-defense on Zimmerman’s part—Confirmed by the jury verdict—Also seems to be overlooked.

When the Rifle magazine runs out, the handgun could be quite handy to have. It’s a thing called backup.
When ammo was expended, GI’s and Marines reached to the side for their knives.
