Drawings Statement

I was first a draftsman at the U.S. Army Inventory Control Center, Long Binh, Vietnam, and then an illustrator for "The Army Reporter" newspaper. I was a soldier but saw no combat. I drew from real life, from photographs made by friends, or from photos by Army photographers. After a year in Vietnam, I returned home to Greer, SC, in Dec. 1971. I was then -- and still am-- a believer in Jesus Christ. (Click on "older posts" to proceed through this blog.) -- Larry Steve Crain
