Here is a first look at a commission piece that I got started on this week.  It measures 24" x 40" and is on a cradled board that I made myself.  I started with a background of vintage Texas ephemera.  The client suggested a few specific colors and an oil well in the center, other than that,  it's free game.  I'm super excited about this one.  It is also the largest piece I've ever done.  I'll keep you posted on the progress.
