Today, we salute Army Veteran Denis Velez. Denis grew up in the Bronx and enjoyed immersing himself in the art and culture found in every block. The paintings he loves bringing to life are a peek into that life and its experiences. Denis has enjoyed painting since junior high. He applied his skills in South Korea when a commanding general needed an artist to create accurate drawing boards for the next action plan. After his service, Denis and his passion grew into photography and painting. Now, his home away from home is the VA in West Palm Beach, Florida, and he continues to paint, this time to show his gratitude for the great care he is getting at the VA. Thank you for sharing your talents, Denis, and THANK YOU for your service.
