This commission is finished and off to the new home. I was asked by a fellow Marine that is a Colonel now to create a piece that defined the @marines to me. Basically create what you want. So, I decided to create a still life with objects that represent certain aspects of the Corps.

1. USMC flag folded properly and crisp (attention to detail and tradition).
2. M16A2 rounds (dependable. Tried and tested again and again for accuracy and reliability). 6 of them to reflect a Colonel (O-6 rank)
3. Dress Blue Cover (class, professionalism, style and unique).
4. The USMC KA-BAR ( every Marine no matter the MOS or rank is a warrior first and dependable as a brother in combat).

Created using @escoda_brushes with @gamblincolors, @royaltalens on Portuguese pine.
