The good people over at Iam8bit Productions invited me to take part in “Combo Attack” an exhibition celebrating 25 years of Street Fighter!

I chose Dhalsim as my focus and this was a great chance to pay homage to Mughal Indian painting; an era and style of painting that i’ve always looked to for inspiration.

It opened on 3rd August and is on for two weeks, so if you’re in the LA area go take a look!
