Muhammad Ali Tribute Piece
He who is not courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing in life. ~Ali
Hey everyone, hope you enjoy today's post. This was a tribute piece after the passing of boxing legend Muhammad Ali. This was definitely a sad moment shared around the world when it was announced and I decided to paint this iconic picture of him on some recycled timber. This one is now hanging up in the house of a massive Ali fan.
Check out the time lapse video below, sorry about the quality, I lost the original file after a hard drive died.
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee. ~Ali

Thanks @malicered I really like your intro post and you seem interesting, looking forward to seeing some of your design work if that's the direction you take on Steemit. I'd even consider commissioning some work as me and a close friend are constantly bouncing business ideas off of each other

Hi Josh That's a dope piece! Do you sale them or just dabble as a hobbie?
Thanks for the good words. Technically it is just a hobby at the moment, but I'm fortunate enough for people to want to purchase them, and I normally get a few commissions for custom artworks every now and then. I'm hoping to be able to put more time into it and make a career out of it
You're welcome its a very unique way of presenting great art. Good luck with your future endeavors! I will continue to follow your posts to help spread your gift.
Brilliant and original, destined for steemit glory!
Cheers! Appreciate the good words
This is really cool, great work. I love time-lapse videos, I do the same myself with my own art :)
Thanks heaps. I checked out your page, followed, awesome work. I'm getting into a bit of colour theory at the moment, definitely something that has always been a bit intimidating for me
Thanks @jwmackay, colour theory can be intimidating but very useful to know and will improve your colour work and painting skills. For example if you want to desaturate a colour you can mix its opposite on the colour wheel :)
Mahh man! (Denzel Washington voice) . You're a real talent! Any way a buy some of them? I see you do a lot of art! ;)
Listen, I post a lot of Combat Sports things. And all other stuff :) Check it out @kid4life .
