𝐒𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐦𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐌𝐢𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐞𝐥 𝐌𝐢𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐨, 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐨𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐚 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐈𝐃𝐏𝐀 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡 𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤.

With America celebrating its 250th birthday this year, I developed the artwork theme as a tribute to this historic occasion. The match logo integrates the 1776 Ross Flag with today's Old Glory, honoring the country's Semiquincentennial while establishing the match identity. Space constraints shaped the logo design, but the match shirts allowed much more freedom in layout and creative choices. The overall theme is Celebrating Freedom, with General George Washington as a central element.

𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: My research spanned historical depictions of General George Washington and colonial-era soldiers as key visual references. The art style draws from some of my favorite artists — John Berkey, Syd Mead, and Sparth — for a more edgy, modern, and abstract aesthetic.

𝐀𝐝𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: 122nd Fighter Wing, Indiana ANG - The 122nd Fighter Wing, based in Fort Wayne, IN, was originally known as "The Marksmen" before adopting the identity "The Blacksnakes" in 1997. The Marksmen identity ties directly to Fort Wayne's history and General Mad Anthony Wayne (also known as "Black Snake"), who commanded highly skilled soldiers — many of them sharpshooters.

Artwork on the unit's aircraft and patches often depicted a side profile of a U.S. Springfield Model 1795 flintlock musket, or General Mad Anthony Wayne on horseback with a rifle in hand. Inspired by that artwork, I chose a flat, side-profile depiction of George Washington and gave it a modern style.

𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐞: The 122nd FW is the first and only Air National Guard unit to host a Designated Marksman course. "All Marksmen are Blacksnakes, but not all Blacksnakes can be Marksmen."

𝐊𝐞𝐲 𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧 𝐄𝐥𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬:
* The design is a tribute to America's 250th birthday, with 𝐂𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐅𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐨𝐦 as the central theme.
* The text and gold decoration surrounding the image are styled to evoke a colonial-era poster.
* The 13 bullet holes in the center-down zero represent the original 13 colonies, styled after the star pattern used on the 1776 flag.
* George Washington's uniform is painted in red, white, and blue to symbolize the U.S. flag.
* Artistic license was taken to add a hand towel on his belt, a saddlebag for ammunition, and additional period details.
* The target is a standard IDPA target with colonial-era styled text for the scoring zones.

I also developed a special design celebrating the 30th Anniversary of the IDPA, which will be printed on a match shirt sleeve.

It was truly an honor to create the artwork for the Indiana State IDPA Championship — blending the celebration of our country's 250th birthday with the 𝟑𝟎𝐭𝐡 𝐀𝐧𝐧𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐈𝐃𝐏𝐀
