No throwing in the Towel

Well, I am pleased to say that after ten days of sketching in conte and watercolour, and then transference to canvas and acrylic I’ve completed my interpretation of Frank Bruno’s hey-day.

It’s interesting to watch all the boxing videos from over twenty years ago and to look at the many images of Frank Bruno on the web.  I decided to capture a look of steely determination showing the strength of mind and body that is required to undertake this sport.

The original will be varnished and framed for auction at The President’s Sporting Club Gentleman’s Boxing Evening near Harlow on Monday 1st November. With tickets at only £50 for a dinner and a night of boxing – it’s very good value.

I will be selling a limited edition of prints at full size, half-size or on canvas box. 10% of the sales will go to the charity. See the gallery for more details or email me. With a better picture tomorrow in the daylight! Thanks.
