Independence for Billy Boy

Independence for Billy Boy - Mitro   24" by 36"  NA

Independence always requires incredible strength, and is usually never achieved unless the pursuer of it is able to tap into it.
 If you look at the bottom right of the picture you will see ships setting off artillery fire which can be seen as transparent blue streams of light in the night. 
Blue because although some freedom battles must be fought it is still with blue sadness that some death is invariably resultant.
If you look at the right hand side of the painting you will see the ghost, a US Navy Sailor with a distinctive WW2 Sailor's Cracker Jack Tally Pancake Flat Hat Cap looking down on the ships from the sky.
This painting was done in my usual style adding paint to a blank canvas and letting some magnetic quality of the canvas form the paint into a painting.
This is one of my spirit paintings spirit paintings
