Kansas City Renaissance Festival 2016 Mural Contest
The mural was painted on an 8ftx4ft piece of plywood. It won first Place that year. It took 3 weekends and a week vacation to finish. I had no plan and just started painting the background to get started. the creativity flowed naturally from that point.
