Afghanistan

$30.00

In this surreal and heartfelt tribute, a lone German Shepherd—draped in a full EOD bomb suit—stands vigilant in the mountainous deserts of Afghanistan. With snow-capped peaks in the distance and golden earth at his paws, the dog faces down a threat unseen, embodying the loyalty, courage, and silent sacrifice of those who walk downrange. The piece balances a realistic sense of scale and danger with a dreamlike quality—using bold, saturated tones of cobalt sky, mustard sand, and the unmistakable green of the bomb suit to emphasize the stark environment. The title “Left-Hand Stand” is a nod to a classic EOD stance, and the dog's readiness speaks to the bond between handlers and their four-legged teammates in some of the world’s harshest conditions.
