I made the blind leap into using videos to promote my artwork! I used iMovie to build the film and just kept working on it until it looked right.

I know I should have been listening to Bob Dylan’s “Bringing It All Back Home” album when I was finishing this portrait, but I had just purchased the Winterland box set by Jimi Hendrix and I blasted that monster as I cranked this painting out (listening to Spanish Castle Magic in the middle of the night while zoned in on Dylan’s nose is a trip).
I redefined the line art and added more chaos to the foreground and border. I am getting used to the red, white, and blue color scheme. Very patriotic in an accidental way.
This portrait is not for sale yet, but it will be very soon. I will let everyone know when the time comes.
I have been dancing around with this Bob Dylan portrait for a couple of months now. I actually started sketching it at my old studio and it has been cooking around in my head like a spicy gumbo. So, late last night with my dog laying at my feet, I put on Highway 61 Revisited and finally made myself sit down and start this thing, my first portrait from the Compound Studio!
It was originally going to be a simple line drawing, then I started throwing the blue paint splatters on the background and it took a different path. The red was the result of a wrong button click in photoshop, and I liked the result so I left it.
The past few months have been occupied with moving into a new house, a new girlfriend, a new dog, surviving a heat wave, and joining a rock band. It seems the one thing I haven’t been doing is new art, but that has changed. All the computers are unpacked, plugged in, and the lights are on!
So to celebrate I’m having my BACK IN THE STUDIO SALE!! Everything is 15% off! Go to http://tBaneArt.imagekind.com/ before Sunday, August 14, 2011.

I am currently moving the Burning Lucha Studio to a different location so there won’t be any new art until May. In the meantime, I will be digging through the archives and posting art that haven’t been seen online or seen at a gallery show.
It took an all night marathon, but I finished this portrait of Sophia Loren in one mad drawing session as the sun was coming up.
