goldman sacks (sic)

...and they plunder and pillage and they laugh and flip you off all the while. Here's an evolution of this canvas. It's been around the block. It started off as a live painting of Michael Q. Schmidt posing as Silenus at the Hive gallery. Then it languished for nearly a year, which sometimes happens, and got nice and dry in the meantime. Then a month ago I picked it up and started a Royal Bank of Scotland "Massacre of the Innocents" by Rubens master copy. But then I switched gears last minute and painted a Goldman Sachs bacchanal instead, which came out great! Here are a few shots of the evolution of the canvas and a photo from the show at Charlie James gallery Blogger doesn't display the images hi-res, but hopefully you get the idea...
