Guess this one needs no explanation. Great job my friend, I love the expression on his face. As always, details are excellent and I like the purple 'glow'.

Comment from Joanna P


She wore a Raspberry Beret while driving in a Little Red Corvette. If those 2 couldn't get me on the dance floor in the day nothing could. You came up with the perfect title and the facial expression is to a, "T".
The treatment of the spotlight becomes an intricate part of the composition. Well done.

No one can beat your draftsmanship. This is the first time I am not crazy about your picture. I know the upper part is the spotlight. The lower half of him is in shadow. Both of these effects do not work for me, especialy the way his bottom half looks. Sorry.

I love the spotlight with the Purple Rain! As always, great detail and so much skill here. Prince is not one of my favourite artistes but you've got him just right here.

Amazing art piece. There's so many details it had to take you a lot of hours to finish. My favorite color is purple so I liked it as soon as I opened to look at it. I think it's Prince?? Oh wait, "The Artist Formerly Known As Prince". Great use of light and shadow. Good angle with him standing under the spotlight! Well done.

Comment from Anne


This is neat the way you have done this one. I like the way you have used a lot of the same colors throughout the work. I like the way you have the light shinning on him. The detail in this is great. I like the way you did the guitar white so it really shows up. A very creative and excellent picture.
