Some eight hours this weekend, all painted in photoshop. I had a brainwave at work, and did a little inch by inch thumbnail of this image. Went home, after boozing and whatnot... and painted it. I was originally going to do it in acrylics, but pussed out in the end. I used the old photos of munitions tests on fruit and a guy standing in a bidness suit as ref. I stuck with the color scheme of the fruit being shot, and used the splatter texture from the photo because at a distance, I wanted it to read like that.

Very nice pic! Just for nitpicking, would it read better flipped horizontally? Great piece ;)

Great concept and execution.
If you flip it, the viewer's eye will probably be lead out of the image... I like it like this, it's a matter of taste maybe :)
