It often surprises people how much of Bob's art has little to do with fantasy. And occasionally he slips a bit of 'straight' art through without anyone noticing. The painting on the right was for a fantasy book cover, but apart from the scale it is a simple portrait of some obliging Komodo Dragons in Sydney zoo.
