Here's a commission I recently finished. I thought the lighting was really striking in the photo reference I got. It was an interesting challenge to try to maintain the simplicity of the lighting across the complex grouping of the troops. Hope you like it!

That is an extremely sensitive painting! Well done!(I am referring to the painting and not the content, though they both are subject to my adjective.)
Very sophisticated.
Amazing work! So very detailed and the chosen colours are perfect.

I think you're officially a master painter. I hope I get to see this one when I get home. I'm painting in Switzerland right now. Crazy stuff.
Wonderful recession and light. Amazing colour considering the subject material is drab khaki and sand!
