Beautiful work of art! It’s refreshing as a player artist to see an analog piece that reminds me so much of the aesthetics of the game’s golden years. It’s been so rare.

I would like to ask a question. Years ago I tried acrylic on gessoed board, and it was VERY tasty to paint. Do you have any pieces like this from years ago? How did it interact with time? I mean in terms of the life of the material itself.

  So far so good! I’ve got a completely acrylic painting on gessoed board that’s 7 years old with no yellowing or other issues.
