Introduction: Artwork

Abstract

At the July 2012 Military Experience and the Arts Symposium at Eastern Kentucky University, I sat with a participant who struggled to understand the meaning behind the artwork that was used for the cover of JME 2. When the artist, Jessica Dittbenner, came to the microphone to talk about her painting, my companion took in everything she had to say, and the significance of the artwork was unveiled not only for her, but for everyone else in the room.
