Honoring our Marines with military gifts

Artist Mac McSweeney has been researching and drawing military posters for all branches of the service since his reitrement from the U.S. Navy.  He confers with each particular branch before completing his design.  His prints are available, but he is now collaborating with Get Promoted on a series of military gifts that use his artwork and our imprinted products.  Read more about the partnership and the products here.

Honoring Our Soldiers: Original Military Art on Coffee Mugs for Patriotic Celebrations

Patrick (Mac) McSweeney was a career Navy man.  He lives now in the quiet town of Chenoa, Illinois, about one hour north of Springfield.  In retirement, he cultivated an interest in colored pencil drawing.  When he put his two passions together, drawing and honoring the military, a beautiful thing happened.  He found that his art could elicit emotion, honor the soldiers, and raise funds, too.

The walls of the local Chenoa Family Restaurant just off Hwy 55  are full of his matted and framed art.  He sells prints through his website at www.chiefmacink.com.  Through a chance meeting, Get Promoted has started to collaborate with Mac, producing his original art work on mugs, plaques, t-shirts, and other items.  To order prints from Mac, go to his website.  To have an item custom-made with Mac’s designs, contact Mac or Get Promoted through their websites to discuss your project.  Any of the artwork can have a personalization area for your favorite soldier.

Chief Mac Speaks:

“My graphics producer and I have committed $3.00 from each poster that is sold, and 15% from each post card that is sold to be collected and donated to Military Families in distress with wounded soldiers.

All of my drawings are hand-designed by me and produced in Central Illinois (Bloomington and Chenoa). My productions have been given approval by many active duty National Guard and reserve Military personnel, who suggested ways in which my drawings could gain even more heart with a caricature all their own.”  ….excerpt from Chief Mac’s website.
