Chuck Norris "Arete" Original Painting by Brandon Bird, Painter of Might!

I had this one up in the past and I wanted to pop it back up today. Rest in peace Chuck.

This is the original painting. It hides behind the door of our guest bedroom facing the bed, so that when guests at our house close the door for a night of slumber, they find Chuck Norris watching over them.

Who wouldn't want a barechested Chuck Norris watching over you? The title is particularly well suited, as Arete is a greek word meaning superior.
