Troll Snow Brawl

This was a very old sketch remade. Way back in 2010 I had an idea of a giant snake fighting a troll on the snowy mountains. But I didn't quite like what I came up with in terms of composition. Some time later I saw a photograph of a sculpture "Hercules Wrestling Achelous" by François Joseph Bosio. Although mechanicaly different that sculpture showed me the lacking component in my own composition "gravity". So I like to think this as a tribute to François Joseph Bosio.

Indirect Painting.
