“He used to ask me, ‘Why did I make it back from Iraq?’” Melissa recalls. “I would tell him there was a reason. Now I know it is this art. It has a real impact on people. It creates a visceral reaction, not only for veterans but also for people who have never been in combat. Even they can feel it in their bodies. His art has been powerful for creating an emotional connection with other people.”
