"Boxer" 12"x12" oil on canvas

Available for $275, contact me.
This painting is larger, a 12"x12" museum wrapped canvas, painted on all sides.  Of course it has taken me longer to do this one.   At first glance it looks like you can use yellow ochre and Winsor Newton burnt sienna to get his color, but noooo!   Beside those two colors I had to get out Holbein mars yellow, Holbein yellow grey, Winsor Newton raw sienna, made a dark brown and black mixtures with ultramarine blue and  WN burnt sienna.   I had paint mixtures all over my palette.  But I think it worked.
