Denver artist, David Martinez, is known for his sugar skull portraits. This piece "Soldado," currently on display at the Museum of Boulder, honors Justin Verdeja, a Mexican-American soldier from California who was stationed at Colorado’s Fort Carson. Justin, who was a 20 year-old, was killed Baghdad in June 2007 after being hit by small weapons fire from insurgents. #DavidMartinezArtist #DenverArtist #HispanicArtist #MuseumofBoulder #VocesVivas #BoulderColorado #Portrait
