PORTRAITS OF THE FALLEN

An artist named Kaziah Hancock paints portraits of fallen soldiers free of charge for their families as part of Project Compassion. Video by KARE 11/ Minneapolis/ St. Paul.




The selflessness of this woman is second only to the selfless sacrifice of the U.S. servicemen she portrays in oils.

There are many artists in my family. I studied art myself, and made a living starving at it before I picked up soldiering as a trade. This is my qualified assessment; Ms. Kaziah Hancock has incredible talent. Kaziah's portraits possess amazing lifelike qualities; energy, character and charisma shine through. I am quite certain that these portraits go a long way toward easing the pain of loss for the families of the fallen.

It is with great pleasure that we present Kaziah's work here on Blog STORMBRINGER
