i'll upload a bigger, full-viewable version soon as i find the photos.
this is over a year old, watercolour and gold ink, maybe some shellac even, on canvas. Was shown, but not sold, at the last show i did at Tap Gallery, in Darlinghurst.

I painted this for Rhys - a friend of mine who for some bizzare reason took it to his head that i never paint anything ugly (he lives with a certain artist by the name of James Flaxman [link] , and is himself fond of drawing misshapen faces and human heads getting unzipped into halves, which may go some way to explain this claim)

my technique with shadows has gotten a bit better since then, i'd like to think.
