2010-02-11T22:16:00.003-05:00

The show opened officially on the 30th of January, here is a painting I did specially for the exhibition on the back wall of the gallery. it's about 4,5x2 m in size (15'x6.6').
Check out the pictures that show the progress from the collage stage to the finished painting. Enjoy

-Finished painting. The wall is not really lighter in the center, just some liberal highlighting on the computer to show the approximate boundaries of the piece
