82nd AIRBORNE ART
Welcome to the 82nd Airborne Division fine art page. Often referred to as the "All-American" Division with an incredible, storied history--especially during World War II. "All the Way!"
Supporting the Division
In late 2015, The 82nd Airborne Division Museum approached Solovey with composing a pencil collage to celebrate the 100th Year Anniversary for the 82nd Airborne Division. The intent was to capture the Division's history beginning in with World War I. From there, historically capture World War II, Vietnam, Operation Desert Storm, Operation Iraqi Freedom, and Operation Enduring Freedom. Upon releasing, "100 Years of Service", all 82 Artist Proofs immediately sold-out within on week.
