Digital painting of Gandalf, aiming for an Oil Pastel like finish on black canvas, I emphasised the expression to increase that intense feeling through his eyes. This had started as a speed painting but turned into more. As with many of my portraits this has photoreal aspects when viewed afar but at a mid and close up level you can feel and see the textures, brush marks. Created with the intent of being printed or displayed at a large scale. Single Edition artwork at a resolution of 5689 x 5000
