I love the composition, the tension, and the scene that everyone can understand despite one's (in)experience with boxing. Whatever you face, if you're lucky, you have someone to advise you (and their advice is actually good), and a friend to support you no matter what you do, but in the end you have to go out and deal with it alone.

I'm also frequently interested in why images are depicted in one medium, like photography, instead of another, like a painting. I'll consider all opinions below which medium expresses what. What do you think?

I adore this. You've gotta not me so we can arrange some sort of payment maybe? I wouldn't mind buying the original at all.

I'm very glad you like it! I'm going to spend some time reshooting it today. Send me a note about purchasing the original.

Thanks!
