Description
The final piece for my art unit on music, a pair of acrylic paintings of the legends, Joe Satriani and Steve Vai
I wanted to capture the relationship between the two virtuoso's [Satch having taught Vai], the emotion in the music and in their faces and their dynamic-ness [is that a word? lol sorry it's getting late...], but i also wanted to show their two distinct styles, in both the way they play and the way they look, which is why I done them on two canvases that go together
These paintings follow on from my Jimi Hendrix prep work painting, working in the same free flowing, colour driven style-it's a new sorta direction, but i just added colour wherever I felt it should be, rather than where I THINK it should be which really y'know, let me open up and it's made my paintings a lot more lively and even more realistic! just goes to show that life can't be painted straight from the paint tube somtimes, gotta mix the colours around =]
[these paintings also follow on from my Boat in a Storm painting, where I first started developing this colour-driven style]
these aren't completely finished yet btw, and if you were wondering, Joe Satriani is the bald guy

Love it, them! Seen both many times, fortunately. Check out my pick collection in my gallery, I have many from each of them
