Veteran's Day 2022 - a conversation with Elize McKelvey and Victor Juhasz

A salute to Veterans through the eyes of illustrators Victor Juhasz and Elize McKelvey, who have documented real-life experiences of American servicemembers.
About Victor Juhasz
=================
Victor Juhasz was born in Newark, New Jersey. He exhibited an interest in drawing early in life but needed the prodding of his high school art teacher to abandon a fantasy of becoming a cross-country truck driver (in retrospect, a really awful idea) and recognize his calling to be an illustrator. A graduate of the Parsons School of Design in New York City, 1975, Victor began illustrating in 1974 for THE NEW YORK TIMES while still a student.

About Elize McKelvey
=================
Elize McKelvey graduated in 2012 with her BFA in illustration, but to understand how she ended up an artist in the Marine Corps, we need to rewind a few years to where that origin story begins. Elize assumed she would graduate college and join the art industry as a concept artist, as one does. She was attending a class called “the history of illustration,” and for a brief moment, the professor mentioned something called combat art. Visit Elize McKelvey for additional information.
