Celebrity Icons

"Skeletons Celebrating Life" takes a new turn.  Somebody suggested to me that this famous Marilyn Monroe pose from "The Seven Year Itch" might make an intteresting subject.  I was in agreement, painted it and have since done more Celebrities.  Watch for them.  They are for sale exlusively at Ugallery

Captain Jack Sparrow

I have been doing a series of Celebrity Icons in my "Skeletons Celebrating Life" collection.  This is my latest piece.  You can see more of them at: Skin and Bones

Desert Rider

subject photo

This painting was commissioned by a collector from Australia who fell in love with the Sonoran desert and Phoenix while traveling here a couple of years ago.  He was also impressed with the Dia de los Muertos influence here.  He sent a photo of himself with the bike to be painted with a desert back drop.  The only specific request was to include the Arizona state flag, which he also likes.

This was a lot of fun to do!  It's very interesting that this is about the fourth or fifth "skeleton portrait" I've done and it reinforces my belief that the departed really do "Celebrate Life".  See my facebook page:

It is designed for Day of the Dead fans as well as Elvis Presley art collectors.
