Cold War

A painting I did for my bro on his 22nd birthday (August 6th). Yet again , Janelle Monae, this time from her video "Cold War" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lqmORiHNtN4). I thought it was kinda cool cuz it's pretty unexpected. Anyway, Enjoy.

Summertime

Before I blab I need to thank my big sister Lettie and Boyfriend Adam for showing me the amazing song that lead to these paintings(Summertime-Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong) and pushing for me to do it =). Its The two artists playing for a small audience in the back i put in my sister and her boyfriend and the shadow on the curtain is George Gershwins silhouette -the composer of the song who never got to hear their version .
Been really into drawing "jazzy" people and artists lately, the last one is from a photograph I saw on the sartorialist a while back .Critiques are welcome .Enjoy.
