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

How long have you been airbrushing?

Im a boxer i love this

Yeah I used to box a little while back, I really should get back into it

You def should. Once your bit by the bug

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! ;)
