I was browsing online one day when I saw a picture that caught my attention.
It combined a person's eye with the Brazilian flag.  I found it very vibrant and
inspiring, so I decided to paint a version of it.




The canvas for this piece was very large, as you can see in comparison to my
hands (circled in the photo below)






















I gave the painting to my friend Ana who is from Brazil; she loved it! :)













I made this about a year ago when I was inspired by watching Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin
perform on stage (on YouTube that is.) The way the light was hitting him....
he was just begging to be painted in silhouette! :P

I call him 'Jimmy With the Silver Strings' because the guitar strings are
painted in silver. Definitely one of my personal favorites!
