War Socks
Description: The irony is that so many men died for our freedoms (like free speech), but now the entitled elitists of our society are embracing politically-correct speech codes against whatever they deem to be "hate speech" at any given moment -- largely because they cannot win the arguments if the other side is allowed to speak.
Description: SHAEF was the nickname of the Supreme Headquarters Allied Expeditionary Force and was the headquarters of the Commander of the Allied forces in northwest Europe, from late 1943 until the end of World War II. U.S. General Dwight D. Eisenhower was the commander in S.H.A.E.F. throughout its existence. The position itself shares a common lineage with Supreme Allied Commander Europe and Atlantic, but are actually different titles.
Description: Illustrated by Brazilian artist Henrique Alvim Corrêa for the French 1906 edition of War of the Worlds. From the Public Domain Review website, “‘Alvim Corrêa’, Wells said after the artist had died, ‘did more for my work with his brush than I with my pen’.” Presented here with my own humble flourishes.
Description: During the Second World War stories emerged from the steamy jungles of Guadalcanal, as Allied soldiers did battle with Imperial Japan, that the Japanese soldiers were fighting not only American marines, but towering, hairy ape men who called the rainforest their home. How true these mysterious accounts are, few can say - but stories of giants roaming the forests of Guadalcanal and the other Solomon Islands persist to this day, with many locals claiming to have met these fearsome fighters. Will you join their monstrous ranks?
Description: Did you know that Italian Americans fought on both sides during the American Civil War? From 1861-1865, the Union Army even included a Regiment known as the "Garibaldi Guard”, after the famed Italian General, Giuseppe Garibaldi! The 39th New York Infantry Regiment, which saw action in many of the war’s most important battles, wore the plumed hat of the Italian Bersaglieri into battle to honor their Italian Roots! Now you can honor yours and share this often-overlooked chapter in Italian American history by wearing this proud new design honoring the Italian contribution to the Union Cause!
Description: A war-weary Tommy sits thoughtfully, head bowed, rifle in hand, as he reflects upon the sheer horror of World War One during the first minute after peace was declared in 1918. This imposing metal sculpture, entitled 1101, owing to the fact the armistice went into effect at 11am on November 11, 1918, stands 9ft 5ins tall and weighs 1.2 tonnes. Built out of special corteen steel, it has been installed on Seaham seafront in Country Durham to mark the centenary of the start of the Great War. Created by local artist Ray Lonsdale, the sculpture is also intended to represent Post Traumatic Stress Disorder which many of the returning soldiers endured.
Description: I was hired to design England and WW2 themed iPhone covers by a third party. This was their final pick in the sketches I had provided, yet they never actually purchased the last product. So here we are. I was personally more fond of my other sketches, perhaps I will complete some of them at some point too~~! (2012)
Description: Enough: Middle East Peace No. 4 — A powerful protest image showing a child in extreme emotional distress. The central figure shows a young child screaming with clenched fists against their chest. Behind him, dramatic flames and smoke create an intense backdrop, with sparks floating in the dark atmosphere. The word "ENOUGH" appears in white distressed text at the top. The image uses stark contrasts between the flames' orange glow and dark smoke to create a haunting scene that appears to comment on the impact of war in the Middle East on children
