Urethane on linen, 72 x 144 inches

"That was the second big battle painting I did. I was thinking about how to make a kind of blockbuster painting, one that would compete with a big movie." The bullets zipping across the canvas are another big-screen effect: "I'd just seen The Matrix, and I loved the way 'bullet time' looked."
