Sebastian Kruger Work shop 2013

Just back from the Kruger Work shop in Germany I had an amazing time with 33 other participants from all over the world. I learned so much being with so many great artists and watching the master himself paint everyday is something I will not forget any time soon. I painted 2 paintings during the week keeping with the theme 'movie gangsters' I painted Al Pacino 'Scarface' and Marlon Brando 'The Godfather' I will share photos of these paintings very soon. I am looking forward to next years workshop already!!! thanks to everyone who made this year so memorable.

Keith Richards Acrylic Painting

Here is my first painting of the year I went back to using acrylics for this one and they have really worked well for this painting and I have enjoyed the different process that comes with working with acrylics its a change from oils and it brings different possibilities. I have been reading Keith Richards autobiography while doing this painting as well as having the rolling stone recent greatest hits on repeat for the whole duration of the painting so its been a really enjoyable process.

Vincent Kompany & Eddie Jordan

Here are two commissions I did just before Christmas, I am really happy how they turned out and I am enjoying the endless possibilities of working with color. These are the types of commissions I love to do when the client gives me someone to paint from the sports world or the world of music.
