This began as a stream of ideas painting but the first idea of the cigarette grabbed me right away and the rest of the painting evolved just from that starting point. The figure began not meant to be anybody but in the end, given the soundtrack, it channels a kind of burnt-out John Wayne. The soundtrack I found after the painting was complete and it fell into place so nicely I just used it.
