Original artwork description:

When resting isn't restful. This fella came to me in a dream - and as such, I invented him piece by piece, not using any other figures as reference. Built up with layers of colour applied with palette knife, I wanted to evoke sculpture as well as something dignified and peaceful. After a lot of working into the image he appeared and exists as he is, not perfect but beautiful.

Oil on board, gold metallic oils give it brilliance in the right light.

Materials used:

Oil paint on board
