The artist with her dogs--aww! Great painting, too! Nice touch with the vine crawling along the chair leg as if it were a fixture of the flower garden. > I'm sure that the painting would look great hanging up at Paisley Park, or anywhere Prince-inspired.

The pose is quite similar to Afshin Shahidi's pic of Prince, just flipped.

Looking at the hands it was probably her inspiration. Love her take | |

Looking at the entire pic- it's identical...just different colors. Love it! She's a great artist | |

it's actually not flipped, but rather transposed. It's what happens when you photograph something. Notice sometimes when you know someone is married, and their wedding ring 'appears' to be on the right hand by the way you see it on the computer...same difference here.

This pic always reminds me of Quentin Crisp | |

what? A photo doesn't "transpose" for example if you take a picture of a sign, you can read it.
... a mirror reflects and flips an image. Or the reverse side of screen flips an image. Maybe she used a projection of the photo from behind the canvas as aguide. That would then be a reverse. My art book: http://www.lulu.com/spotl...ecomicskid

Thank you for posting these CherryMoon57! Great colorist. She also really captures his face in both paintings. He looks real, like you could touch it and feel skin, not just a portrayal. "if you can't clap on the one, then don't clap at all" | |

^You're welcome Poppy. I agree, the painting looks like Prince is actually alive in it, it's mesmerizing. Life Matters | |
