Fallen Firefighters

This is a limited-edition print The Chesapeake Fire Department asked me to create in honor of firefighters Frank E. Young and John Hudgins Jr., who were killed while fighting a fire in a Chesapeake business in 1994. I asked the department so supply two facial photos. I photographed two stand-ins in fire gear. When I was finished putting all the elements together in a drawing, I was satisfied that the print sold was one that was an uplifting image. The printing was donated by Jones Printing Co. of Chesapeake, Va.
