News

There is a nice story about Charles’ trip to Washington DC to honor our WWII soldiers. Be sure to check out Northern Connections‘ article detailing the trip and describing the events at the Memorial. Here is a snippet (by Paula Green):

"Recently, Charles Ott, a local illustrator from Baden, completed an illustration of the National World War II Memorial in Washington, D.C.  “It was after seeing Saving Private Ryan and Band of Brothers that I gained a true understanding of just what these veterans had to endure, and that inspired me to create this latest illustration." 

 

The SteelCityArtist.com website, featuring the work of Charles R. Ott, Jr., was recognized on the WPXI Channel 11 news feature, 11Clicks in May. We are proud to have been honored by Carly and Jessica’s coverage. They have a great show highlighting noteworthy local (and national) websites. We hope you will find their show interesting and watch it often.
