Officer Sean Collier

Officer Collier was the 26 yr. old who was shot and killed in cold blood on the MIT Campus by the Boston Marathon bombers. He was just a couple of months away from being sworn in as a Somerville police officer, where he began his career. Hits close to home, literally, as Somerville is my hometown. I wanted to pay tribute the only way I really know how- with a drawing.

I drew this in pencil and then colored it in photoshop. I'm sending a print of it to his family. If you'd like to learn a little more about Sean, please check the facebook page, [link]
