I was lucky enough to see the progression of this painting from start to finish. The first time I visited the makeshift studio a few days before the opening of the show this painting didn’t exist at all. The wood panel had been constructed and the artist had a little sketch in his moleskin notebook.

The sketch was no bigger than a standard sized business card, but it was all SYDWOX needed to take it to the next level. The “next level”, of course, being an eight feet tall by four feet wide panel.

Here are some in progress photos for you.

And the completed piece!
