NOTE: This artwork falls under my super large artworks postage category and if excess is charged I’ll refund the remaining amount. This is more likely to happen with international sales where I had to charge for the most lucrative destination in your continent.
While listening to a podcast the guest began playing a song which I then shazamed. I was surprised to learn that the artist was Charles Manson, but I do sit in the camp of separating the art from the artist so I decided to paint him as the rock star he never became. This was also my first artwork being documented in the form of a “How to” so each step was documented with incredible detail.
I decided to paint an outfit as a mix of ideas from 80’s rock stars, the guitar and tattoo are odes to his cult and the expression is Bruce Springsteens. A guest recently visited and mentioned the expression makes her uncomfortable which is precisely how I wanted it to turn out. To have that Charles Manson crazy face look but also showing that expression Bruce showcases in the example photo.
This artwork is one of my hand-stretched ones, sold with hooks ready to hang and a certificate of authenticity.
