My latest piece

"The Eye of The Tiger"
36x36 Mixed Media on Canvas. $475 @ http://zhibit.org/synchronicart

This new piece I've been working on for a while now. I began with the top portion of the painting and then worked my way down. It was kinda hard deciding exactly where to place everything in the piece. In the end this is what I came up with, hope you enjoy!

I just finished a group of paintings that have red, black, white and baby blue flourishing throughout them. I wouldn't say that my artwork is unorganized but it could look that way, however when it all comes together strangely the unorganized works.
