I wasn't originally going to share due to the fact its not original piece but rather based from a film / book. I don't normally take on things like this but I was asked and I liked the film so much and had some time on my hands.<br />It was commissioned last year and based from the film<br />'The Road'<br />I tried to keep the background a little looser so it feels like its painted and not just a copy of the film image.<br /><br />Oil on board<br /><br />Painted by Matt.
