The Rider

A battle scene.

In retrospect, this was a very hard image for me to paint. Not only was it a unfamiliar subject matter, but it was also tricky medium to do an illustration in. I think next time I will have to work much bigger to get the details to show up more clearly. This image could have used a lot more work, but after awhile, I just couldn't look at it anymore!
