About The Artwork
I was drafted and served in the US Army's Faculty Company, Special Troops from Jan. 1962 to Jan. 1964. This was right before the war in Vietnam became HOT. My platoon sergeant in the year before I was discharged was Harrison C.V. Bell who became a close friend. He was brilliant and tough.Two years after being discharged, married, in advertising and living in NY., I fished my weekly copy of Life magazine out of the mailbox and immediately froze looking at the cover. I recognized Harry immediately on the left. Apparently most of my company were sent to Vietnam. The award winning photo was taken at the battle of An Thé by French war photographer Henri Huet who unfortunately died on assignment in Cambodia.When I started painting I knew it was a subject I had to paint.

TROMPE L’OEIL, PHOTOREALISM, 3D AND OTHER VISUAL DECEPTIONS About Norm Siegel “You’re insane!” I get this a lot from people who view my work. Including other artists. Paintings that are clocks that tell time. Paintings that look like books that can even fool a librarian. 3D Anaglyphs that take painting to another dimension. Paintings that are hard to distinguish the subject from the painting. Paintings that are blank canvases because the frame is the painting. I bring a long career in advertising creating ads that I hope are memorable to creating paintings that are memorable, humorous, satirical and sometimes just plain pleasurable.
