Keeper of the Flame

So, do you remembe these?
The coolest thing ever. A Zippo lighter. Back in the days when we were ignorant I had a Zippo (which I stole from my dad) and a silver cigarette case. Sigh. What more could you want? 
I painted this as part of the the Daily PaintWorks challenge this week. There are over 100 artists who posted their interpretations of  the subject using only Ultramarine blue, burnt sienna and white. Look at them all here
