A magic moment is caught at a peak point of drama.


It's the instant of friends having fun.


A beer is offered and it's is acknowledged with a head nod.


A woman covers her giggling face reacting to a funny comment .


The decisive moment is preserved.


Sounds like a critique of an art photograph?


No, it's an illustrator.


This ingenious composition simultaneously represents the best of photography and painting.


The precise moment could have been captured by Cartier-Bresson.


While the complex figural composition could have been rendered by Nicolas Poussin.


Add to it , a painting technique and color scheme that has the quick drama of a post impressionist.


We have a great work of art by an overlooked American illustrator/artist/painter, Mike Ludlow.


"Here's a cold one for you Mike!"
