When he announced a <strong>sale on commissions<\/strong> for the month of <strong>December<\/strong>, I wrote to ask him about a <strong>Stallone<\/strong> piece for my collection.  Thomas quickly responded and said that he was a fan of <em><strong>&#8220;First Blood.&#8221; <\/strong><\/em> I was surprised at how quickly <strong>Thomas<\/strong> finished the piece and that he&#8217;d decided to put <strong>Richard Crenna&#8217;s<\/strong> character in as well.  I totally dug everything about it.<\/p>\n<p>So&#8230; I asked <strong>Thomas<\/strong> if he was up for some more <strong>Stallone<\/strong>.  He said that he was, so you&#8217;ll be seeing his take on <strong>Sly<\/strong> from <em><strong>The Expendables<\/strong><\/em> and <em><strong>Get Carter <\/strong><\/em>on the <strong>SZ<\/strong> in the next few weeks.  They are just as cool!  If you want to see them sooner, <strong>Thomas <\/strong>has posted them on <a href=\"http:\/\/boatwrightartwork.blogspot.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>his blog<\/strong><\/a> and his <strong>DA site<\/strong>.  Send him some love.<\/p>\n<p>I hope to get more <strong>Stallone<\/strong> art from <strong>Thomas<\/strong> in the future.  If you get commissions, you should consider him as well.  He keeps you totally in the loop on his progress, finishes his commissions on or ahead of schedule, has very reasonable prices and is a fantastic artist!  <strong>&#8211; Craig<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I had been a fan of Thomas Boatwright&#8217;s art for a while.
