As an artist and playing card designer I have the unique opportunity to both create art and also pay respect and say thank you to those in the US Military by creating a deck of cards that honors them and the rich history of the US Army. Instead focusing on specific people of history like most of my previous historic decks I wanted to make this deck more of an "everyman's" deck in which it didn't honor any one person but all of the men and women who make up our Army. I also wanted to emphasizes the evolution of the Army uniform throughout the major conflicts of it's history. From the Revolutionary War, Civil War, WWI & WWII, Korean War, Vietnam War and the modern conflicts in the middle east I try to portray that evolution. I also wanted to bring two distinct art styles together. I wanted to try something new, compared to my previous work and try a style more fluid and more raw. However I wanted to maintain some of the line work of my past as that is who I am and part of what has created my complete style. This deck is a meeting of old and new in what I think will be a wonderful way for me to say thank you to those that have paid a price no matter how small or big in service to people of the United States.
