1. What kind of artwork do you create?
I specialize in painting and designing military arm badges, unit plaques, and regimental emblems. Each piece is handcrafted with attention to historical accuracy, symbolism, and craftsmanship — honoring the pride and identity of military units.
2. What inspired you to focus on military insignia and plaques?
I’ve always been fascinated by the heritage, honor, and meaning behind military symbols. Each badge tells a story — of history, camaraderie, and sacrifice — and I wanted to preserve that legacy through art.
3. Do you work with specific military branches or all services?
I create work for all branches — Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, and specialized units. Each has its own traditions and insignia, which makes every commission unique.
4. How do you ensure accuracy in your designs?
I conduct thorough research before starting each piece, often referencing official heraldry, historical records, and original insignia. I also consult with serving or retired personnel to verify colors, details, and symbolism.
5. What materials do you use for your artwork?
I typically work with high-quality acrylics, enamels, or metallic paints on wood, metal, or canvas bases. For plaques, I often incorporate varnish or protective finishes to preserve color and durability.
6. Can you create custom or personalized pieces?
Absolutely. Many clients request custom designs featuring their unit badge, personal service details, or commemorative elements for retirements, memorials, or presentations.
7. How long does it take to complete a piece?
It depends on size and complexity. A single badge painting might take a few days, while a detailed commemorative plaque could take several weeks to complete.
8. Do you ship your work internationally?
Yes. I carefully package and ship artworks worldwide, ensuring they arrive safely and ready for display.
9. Can you reproduce existing badges or plaques?
Yes, I can recreate existing designs — either as faithful reproductions or as artistic interpretations. However, I always respect copyright and official heraldic guidelines.
10. Who typically commissions your work?
My clients include active service members, veterans, military families, regimental associations, and museums who want to preserve and celebrate their heritage.
11. What do you hope people feel when they see your work?
I want them to feel pride, respect, and connection — to remember the people, stories, and traditions each badge represents. My art is about honoring service and keeping military history alive through craftsmanship.
