    "It was a lost cause, we went over, we participated in things we probably shouldn’t have participated in, we made choices we’ll have to live with forever and then we get on a plane and come back here and nothing is ever said about it…” Zack Choate, Iraq War veteran, Atlanta, Georgia

    Due to an outpouring of support and interest in the “Odysseus Project: Finding Home” art exhibit, of which four pieces from my Warriors for Peace series are a part, the show has been extended till July 25th.   The exhibit highlights work by artists and veteran-artists focusing on issues of war (from WWII till the present) and the experience of veterans returning home.  I have heard great feedback on the exhibit from those that have been able to make it thus far.  More information about all the events and directions to the gallery can be seen on the Odysseus Project website.  The website and the proect itself is dedicted to creating dialogue between veterans and non-veterans regarding the effects of war.  I encourage you to check out the site.
