Rocky – Painted and Digitized by John Beatty!

One late afternoon back in 1986, I  got a call from John Beatty.  John said, he was going to work on a painting of Rocky that night after dinner.  He invited me over to watch.  Of course I took him up on the offer.  John worked on the piece through the night.  He finished it in one long session.

The art above is not a picture of that painting.  Years later John was messing around with a photo of the painting and came up with this.
