A SERIES OF TRADITIONAL INK & PAINT PORTRAITS
* * *
I continue to ink with traditional media. These portraits are part of a style set I created to develop a personal style.
Luciano Pavarotti Inked Portrait
Another demonstration piece for my students this term showing how to combine simple paint with traditional ink. Someone who really must like Pavarotti just purchased a 35"x 50" print of this art last week from FAA. Still one of my favorites in ink. Based on a photo shoot in the 1980s where they placed a black fur coat over his shoulders.
JAZZ Montage
My favorite subject of ink illustration these mini portraits are design to be stand alone works of art as well as parts of a unified design.
Traditional Ink Portrait of FDR
I added digital paint to this inked artwork as a demo for my illustration students.
