Apocalypse Figure

I did some work on the figure for The Apocalypse of Finance today. The colours worked very well despite being simple, yellow ochre light (Winsor and Newton's very transparent and very nice yellow ochre) and Transparent Maroon, a colour I never tire of, like an intense transparent Venetian Red. The feet were improvised which was a challenge and I'm unhappy with the expression, but on the whole this is one of my better poses that looks better in reality than in a photograph.
