This was a study I did from some orchestral photos when I was trying to push my perspective and multi-person composition skills. I took a lot of progression shots along the way just for fun, so I've included them. There's probably about 35-40 hours into this piece. And I'm not sure why I abandoned it. Possibly had a commision due. It's been languishing since 2003, and it's unlikely it will look anything like this if I ever get around to finishing it. Altough I suspect my most finished gent in the picture would appreciate it since he has no bow and his very heavy cello has been "floating" for 5 years!
