Jonathan Davis - Pop Art

Step 1: This is how it's done people. You start out with a canvas and paint it all kinds of wonderful colors.

Step 2: Outline that sucker like a boss!

Step 3: laying in the darkest colors.

Who is your favorite celebrity? Hit me up and I'll do a Pop Art image of them.

Big Freedia

Those who know me, know I'm not big on clubs and parties, but I was afforded the opportunity to go see Big Freedia and did a pop art painting of her. While everyone else was trying to get her attention with their phones, I stood out and waved a huge painting of her. She invited me on stage, took some pics with me and autographed the piece. Very personable and nice!

Recently, I went to an art show where there was a great deal of artists displaying their work - some that were absolutely fascinating, and others, well ... not so much. Upstairs was the "All Media Show" where traditional artists, sculptors, digital artist, and photographers, were all judged. Downstairs was the "Photography" show.

What I found fascinating was the person who won first place in the Photography show, also won first place in the All Media Show. I guess I don't understand how one media can dominate like that. Why does the photographer have the opportunity to be in two separate shows? I know there's an art form to taking a good photograph, but the piece that won just seemed like there was nothing in it that was worth anyone's time.

Am I upset because I didn't win? No. I wasn't in the show. I just went to see what was on display. I guess I don't get it.

Nighthawks Mural

This is the completed work of the Nighthawks Mural. Understand that this is not my original work. I've always admired the painting 'Nighthawks' by Edward Hopper. The first time I saw this painting was as a child, thumbing thru an art book and I fell in love with it. I didn't capture the emotion that Hopper did, but it was fun creating it nonetheless.

1. Checking the walls to see how this paint will react. You can barely see it, but there are three different kinds of paint on the wall. 
2. Waited 24 hours, painted over it, put a nice grid on it and taped around the wall. Mural time ...
3 & 4. Top left portion of the windows in the background are complete. Trying to match up Edward Hopper's color palette. 
5.Darkest parts of the background is complete.

My apologies for the layout of this. When I try and center the two top pics, blogger makes the decision that everything needs to be rearranged. In doing so, the pics get mixed up.
