Below is the finished painting alongside the reference image I provided, with Liana on my Taboo Tiki. I'm pretty stoked with how it came out 8) Yes the background is inspired by TC, which is fitting since this is where we met! Before being sent to Australia the painting was featured at a nostalgia rod show in Holland, you can see it in these event pics http://www.ratrodbikes.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=33536
