Honoring Veteran's
On a recent drive to the west-side city of Glendale Arizona, I found this beautiful Veteran's Memorial on the grounds of a Glendale Public Library.
It consists of five steel trees representing the five branches of service, Air Force, Army, Marines, Navy, and Coast Guards. The leaves on the trees represent the thousands who have served and those that are currently serving in one of those branches. The piece was part of the percent for the arts in Glendale and it was created by artist Joe Tyler. It really is a very impressive artistic creation.

nice composition in that first shot.
A very well-designed memorial...all inclusive also.
Beautifully framed shots of a great looking memorial.
This is unusual and very nice. It looks like copper. I like that first shot.
Wonderful memorial Sharon, I love the 'percentage for art' scheme, someone had a brilliant idea!
I think this is one of the nicest veteran's memorials I've seen. And your creativity and artistry is on display in the first photo. Superb!
The first shot is a real winner! Looks like a super memorial piece.
I agree the first shot is super! but the memorial is quite nice! Peace, Mary Helen Fernandez Stewart
... a well-framed subject.
These are so beautiful.
Great composition on top!
The Glendale Public Library is fabulous but this memorial must be new. It's gorgeous!
