This one is a recently finished commission. The basic composition was spotted in a sketch of mine and I was asked to blow it up to cover a large wall. It's a superb challenge to paint at this scale, believe it or not the adrenaline is flowing, paint is not acting how you imagined, chance comes into play.. That toughest part was figuring out when to leave it alone.

5'x8' Acrylic on canvas.
