Military artist and combat photographer, Corban Lundborg, was so captivated by a book of WWII headlines that he couldn't help but get creative.
Corban works for the U.S. Air Force as a combat photojournalist. While studying military imagery, he came across an old book with hundreds of pages of WWII-era press from around the world. He found relevance in the 1040's headlines and wanted to share them with the world. He decided to take to painting to tell those stories.
