Combs
 
Graig,

I love the Combs picture best of all. Would love to see you paint that one. However I wouldn't crop it. The dark portion on the bottom helps center the figures and gives it a magical quality of the players shining under the lights. Fabulous image! Thanks for 'Jacksons' for sharing.

Ron,

I agree with you on that, though I guess it depends on what I would try to go for in the end. Personally, though I do like how Combs is perfectly placed in the composition, the foreground would seem a bit too empty to me, even if I would have variegated brush strokes and temperature shifts within. Because of how big that large shape is I just think my eye would end up going there first, and not to Combs. But that's just a personal preference. Honestly, I love 'em both!!

Here are some of the big four I'm definitely tackling at some point...

Now, I just need to figure out when that 'some point' is!!
