Canvas 14"-14" - Patron Dog-Sapper

Patron is a legendary dog-sapper! Together with the Chernihiv State Emergency Service of Ukraine (SESU), he helps to clean deoccupied territories from mines. He distinguishes a considerable menu of gunpowder by smell and quickly finds hidden explosives. This dog is not a service dog, he volunteers for the idea and for his favorite hard cheese. Patron’s huge fan audience is worried about his safety, but experts reassure—the hero's weight is not enough to trigger explosives created for humans. Ukraine is unbeatable with heroes like Patron and SESU sappers team.

The Superheroes Among Us is a series of illustrations depicting today's heroes, ordinary Ukrainians who have shown extraordinary abilities of courage, humanity, bravery and love. I've always liked superhero stories, epics and comics, but now there is no need to invent something, because legends are being born in front of our eyes, one just has to have time to draw. Ukraine is invincible as long as there are such superheroes!
