“He was promoted to sergeant at his funeral, so he never had any photos in a sergeant’s uniform. So, I’ve painted him wearing his dress uniform with sergeant stripes and with his medals on — medal of honor and medal of valor. His family loved it.”

Wilson’s portrait became Castro’s first work of art paying tribute to fallen heroes across the country. Now on portrait of valor number 107, he finds it a challenge to keep up with the number of police deaths in the line of duty.
