Commission Works: Past and Present - TUESDAY MOURNING

The 2nd piece of this two part commissioned painting was very different than anything I had ever done. My client wanted me to paint Mr. Monopoly in a "Picasso" style. On top of that he wanted the background to look like old news paper. This painting was a challenge for me but both my client and I were extremely happy with how it turned out.

I applied a gloss finishing varnish on the final piece. 

Working out and trying to adapt the "Picasso" style and making it my own.
