He’s something to balance out the niceties of the last post… /. This piece has been painted on an old dart board box, the box itself is as you would expect covered in misfired shots and dart holes.

Photos from a recent commission.. /. Unfortunately i was not good enough to take photos of the whole process so you’ll just have to make do with close ups of the finished product../.
This painting is unlike pretty much all of my works as its a bit more focused on creating the realism of the cat and mouse but i was a piece i thoroughly enjoyed and very much in love with.. ..//. its a shame (for me) that it already has a loving home to go to.. . /.
