This is really a perfectly done portrait of a great artist that I was lucky enough to see. Your colors are wonderful and everything about this says BB King. Well done.

Great interpretation of the artist. Love the shading and the lighting, effective black background, and the facial expression, like the textures and good frame. Well done

Comment from some1sangel


initial input is excellent. you've done a wonderful rendering and to believe that it was done with sharpie markers! the coloring in his clothing would be just his style. the grey hair, the guitar, everything is as it should be. what a great tribute to a great man.

Ah... except for his coat (lol) you moved away from the flowers! ...with delightful results. Nice work with sharpies (!) on his face... and one can certainly tell that he was a bit rotund. Nice work.

Comment from jrconrad


I am not familiar with B.B. King but this fellow looks like a blues singer. I can almost hear him and his guitar. Very nice picture. I'm sure he'd be honored. Cheers, James.
