New art series: Legends of Jazz

[Bikerpunk]

People who've seen my previous art have seen carefully executed classical things done over months.

Damn it, I want some stuff to look at now.

Wanting also to step totally out of my comfort level, I did no underdrawing, chose bright, insane colors and simply applied the paint and went from there.

Working totally without a net, I did these two portraits.

"Pharaoh's Dream"


"Siren"


I also took the time to paint my double bass:

[Ajax Knucklebones]

The first one looks like Miles Davis.

[Bikerpunk]

Well, that's good. Cause that's who it's supposed to be.

[Wickedanima]

Wow! the flame work on that bass is fantastic. I love the Miles Davis piece, but the lady looks like she could use some smoothing around the middle of her face. I love the style of both tho, really energetic.

[VoltaireBlue]

I like the first one the best. nice job, bp.

[Bikerpunk]

Thanks. I'm still trying to find a pic of you with the right lighting, BTW. I haven't given up on that.
