In this story featuring Umberto Joseph DeJesus and Nancy Cardona, they talk about the day that the World Trade Center was attacked on September 11th, 2001. Umberto left his post and traveled down to the area where he met a high ranking police officer who was injured. He refused to go to a hospital and instead wished to go back and search for his men who were trapped underneath the rubble of the World Trade Center. My Acrylic on Canvas painting depicts the fallen police officers who were trapped beneath the rubble their red and blue souls still burning within them. I depicted this part of the story because I felt that it was the most poignant, an injured officer who wants to go back and search beneath a fallen building for his comrades.http://storycorps.org/listen/umberto-joseph-dejesus-and-nancy-cardona/#
