Soldiers Are True Heroes - Art Journal - #TTC9

Hi Friends,

Its a new month and a new challenge at The Twisted Challenges. #TTC9 is a very colorful challenge: Thankful/ Grateful + Use All 7 Colors of Rainbow.

A lot has been happening at India's border over the last few weeks and it made me realize the amount of sacrifice the soldiers do for the safety of the country. As a citizen, we should acknowledge their unrelenting hard work and we should be thankful to all of them for being our saviors. Hence, I created an art journal as a dedication to these brave soldiers and to thank them for their selfless duty.
