So here is yet another painting! Based on American Gothic by Grant Wood, but with Aquaman and his queen Mera….bonus points to whoever can name the names of the two creatures in the background.  This was yet another commission piece for the client who asked for the other animals playing poker paintings. I still have 2 of those paintings to do, but when I sent him the last painting, I told him I was gearing up to paint quite a few things for the convention season, and had been tossing this idea around (thinks to a little help from my friend Cory) Turns out, the client liked the idea so much he told me to do this one next and bought the painting outright! If I didn’t know any better, I’d say I had a fan….don’t want to jinx things. This is my first parody of a painting that is more of a portrait than a scene. I have been tossing around the idea  of doing a few more “famous portraits” of Justice Leaguers…any thoughts (I know Wonder Woman as the Mona Lisa has been done)?

Appreciate it!
