So, I decided I'd try mixing a lot of colours into one painting. I thought that teal, blue, red, orange, yellow, purple, brown and pink should be hard enough to get into the same painting.

Sure enough, it WAS!
I tried about seven or eight different combinations of the colours to get a sky that kind of worked. I cursed, and tried another two before settling with this.

I love colours, I just don't know how to paint with them. So this is an attempt at pushing my limits.

And by the way, i couldn't find any references for the pose. So I'm not too sure about the abs.
I know where they are supposed to go, when a guy stands up. But when bending like this... Nah, not so easy any more.
