William Foley (artist)
William Foley Jr. (born 1926) is a painter and sketch artist whose work focuses on the events of World War II. At the age of eighteen, Foley was involved in the war effort in the 94th Infantry Division as a soldier, and completed several works during his service that would later form the basis for his career and reputation as an artist.
==Biography==
During World War II, Foley was a rifleman in the 94th Infantry Division “Ghost Corps” under General George Patton, whose campaign was focused on getting past the Siegfried Line, and also participated in the Battle of the Bulge. As an eighteen-year-old, Foley began drawing sketches of events on the battlefield in a sketchbook he carried with him. These sketches were preserved in part because they were able to be stashed in a cardboard tube that previously held a mortar shell. Later, he also drew some war scenes from memory. Foley went on to work commercially as an illustrator. He now resides in Dallas, Texas and is retired.〔
