On Friday 19th November, The Brewery London played venue to the 16th Annual DEBRA Charity Fight Night, hosted by the incredible Frank Warren. Over the course of the evening, the venue watched on as boxers from The Army, The Royal Navy and The Royal Air Force took centre stage for an evening of matchups and live painting, courtesy of yours truly!
Throughout the evening, I worked on an acrylic, 24k gold and palladium piece, paying tribute the British heavyweight superstar, Tyson Fury. Showing him in a range of poses – in his signature ‘Gypsy King’ shorts – I was thrilled with how the final piece came together and, clearly, I wasn’t the only.
An absolute honour for this piece to have been sold to the man, Mr Frank Warren, himself! An absolute gentleman, with a heart of gold, that continues to give back so much to so many needed causes. The night was a knockout (?!) success, the audience were fantastic and over £80,000 was raised for DEBRA on the night. Can’t express how much I’ve missed nights like this, over the last couple of years. Looking forward to the next one!
