HAN SOLO

HAN SOLO
16x20 - acrylics on canvas.

What can you say about Harrison Ford as Han Solo in A NEW HOPE? - I wanted to capture the 'bad-ass' side of him. - I also wanted to play with using lots of solid blacks for a bold contrast - I think it came out pretty cool!


The original canvas is FOR SALE - contact me if you are interested.

Enjoy,

i.FRIEND

i.Friend
16x20 acrylics on canvas.

I started this one over a year ago, and shelved it (after seeing another artist do a very similar painting) after only doing the background - My daughter Hannah fell in love with this from the get-go, and always asks me WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO FINISH THE ROBOT? - Well here it is, my original idea was to take a rather innocent robot and add a sinister tone to it with a simple splash of 'blood' across his chest... Hannah made me promise NOT to do that with this new version! - I had the inspiration to reinvent him 'steampunk' style (sans blood) - For my HANNAH! :)


Original is FOR SALE - Contact me if you are interested.

WILLY WONKA

WILLY WONKA (Gene Wilder)
16x20 - acrylics on canvas.

I really wanted to try and capture the 'crazy' side of Wonka in a subtle way- My favorite part of the film is when they are on the Wonka boat - and Wonka recites this crazy poem and shows that he may truly be insane!


I'm not completely happy with the way this piece came out - I may go back into it and fix it...

This amazing piece is FOR SALE - Please contact me if you are interested!
