Untouchable

Watercolor, 21.5″ X 14″

Inspiration: A young friend of mine told me of his experience surviving multiple sniper attacks in Iraq during his first tour. How after some fire fights, him and his buddies would dig out the high velocity bullets that had missed them by inches. He remembers one particularly bad situation; a cross fire from higher ground and how bullets hit the wall right in front of his face spraying his eyes with stone chips and yet not a single bullet hit him, he swears there was an angel protecting him.
