Whew! It's taken me absolutely ages to get this one finished; I kept getting other little jobs that pulled me away from it, but over the weekend I finally got my head down and completed it.


Unfortunately I didn't keep any of the "in progress" versions, so instead here are a few closeups.


Also, I'm really excited to say I'm going to have some art shown at the Resistance Gallery.
They are doing a short event showcasing the art of Japanese rope bondage, and asked if I'd do a couple of pieces! I've never had anything in a "proper" gallery before, so I can't wait.
I'm not going to post any of the images until after the show, but here are a couple of teaser shots!

excellent news,

I recently saw Suzann Blac @ Resistance Gallery. Good luck with it, and thanks for such a lovely Chimeraworld 6 (new world disorder) cover painting.
