Painted Faces


This is also from my Washington D.C. trip, and this was a memorial of many deceased soldiers. I wish I could remember more about it, but I do remember it was in one of the buildings right before you enter the cemetery, and it stretched from one end to the other, just these wonderfully unique paintings of so many people who'd been killed for our country. All these local D.C. artists were commissioned to do this, so there were oodles of different styles of portraying these people, from abstract to basic profiles to everything in between. This was one of the most touching things on this trip. Observe and enjoy, and remember everyone who does this for us. We thank you.
