"The End of the War"

Every now and then I get a new fun yet challenging commission. This one tops them all! A good friend of mine Matt Katsolis called me a month ago and commissioned an epic war painting. Basically an amazing idea that turned into more then anyone bargained for. Especially his wife, Jen.

This is the exact email I received for this piece:
"The mayor of sausage town at his podium speaking to his people in a jubilant manner declaring the end of the 26 year war against the pickle people. Yay peace in the land! Banners waving throughout. Copper (his dog) is the sausage president in a bad sausage costume."
Several emails later an entire event was planned around the surprise unveiling of this piece. Complete with sausage & pickle hor dourves'. the pictures speak for themselves...

The final piece, that will eventually become a 3 part series...
