An excellent composition and painted beautifully with great expertise and artistic skill.The control of your tones is very well done and gives this a really realistic effect,almost 3D perception for the viewer to enjoy.Great work and worthy of a six from me and yes he's a great musician

Outstanding tribute to the man. You ability to project the soul and feeling of a jazz player is so well done. The body language almost brings the image to life. The use of the b/w brings it back to basics of the true love of jazz and soul living within him. Outstanding!

What a wonderfully artistic image of Grover. He was one of the best. Your rendering in black and white adds such a dynamic look and feel. The pose is perfect for showing the man in action.

Outstanding work of art and a fabulous entry for the contest ~ iPhone7

Hello Janicep1, welcome back to Fan Art, and thanks for sharing this wonderful painting of Grover. The detail is amazing. I think the choice to do this piece in B/W was an excellent choice. Very good use of tones to bring this piece to life. Exceptional work.

An amazing work of art here. It presents as a black and white photograph. Excellent detail. Amazing portions and shading. The fabric of the shirt is presented with such detail and is perfect. His expression is fabulous. You are very talented! A pleasure to view!!

Fantastic portrait! I admire your attention to detail and the surrounding blackness that makes him leap to the forefront of this painting. The look of passion as he is playing is priceless.

Nice realistic acrylic painting you have created. I can almost hear the music and emotions conveyed through your work. Great job with the composition, color, shadowing and shading. Good luck in the contest

I think the artwork here is fantastic. So proportional and very lifelike. The angle and movement are captured in your portrayal of tbis has musician. The body language and music actually comes through. Its a fine piece. Well done.
