Description Not quite room for four times fifty living men, but I wanted to focus on the two figures while still including the airship and sky.. which meant a smaller craft.

Available as a 20x16 giclee on canvas and 14x11 metallic print at mykeamend.com.

We have three of your items up currently so will definitely hit you up. I have a huge blank wall I'm trying to figure out what to do with.

If only we could afford you to do a mural on it. lol

Beautiful. That's one of my favourite poems ever (thank you, Iron Maiden) and I love this version, especially the way the Mariner is gazing into the distance and the clouds.

I *love* that Iron Maiden remade this in musical form - they were awesome for that. I can't even say how many times an Iron Maiden song made a question on a history or literature exam 666 times easier, and all the interesting artists, authors, poems, and historical figures they led me to be interested in... well, we could certainly use more bands like them.

Derek Riggs was my favorite artist growing up, I could lose myself in a Maiden cover for hours of every day, and still find new things months or years later.

Iron Maiden definitely made me the geek I am today
I bought most of their albums as vinyl just for the awesome cover art, CD-size is just too small.

I painted all of their album covers on my jackets when I was a kid. I had a denim or a leather jacket for whatever color combination I was wearing, one for each album cover and even for a lot of the singles.

Love Maiden, 'glad they finally realized that Riggs was a big part of how they made it to the top. So sad he has been too sick to do much artwork since the 90s though. I am always hoping to see more from him.

This totally rocks! Love the erie feeling it evokes and the excellent way you have blended your soft muted colors. It totally brings to mind one of the "Great Masters" paintings. Outstanding work!

Thank you I was *really* trying to go for a Dutch Masters chiaroscuro sort of look for this one, a real deviation from my typical luminist painting style. Glad to hear that it was recognizable.
