Music for your eyes.

Image Art by @jimbradshaw

Skip James is the man. I’ve been wanting to do something music related. I sketched this a year or two ago. It was fun to bring it into Procreate and add doodles, lettering, color and more elements like the guitar neck. I’m always looking for a way to combine my pencil with color and have it look like it really goes together. This one felt right.

    Skip James is the man and this drawing is real man too ! Really like that portrait and all that stuff around it. Old Blues man photos is one of my favorites and trying to do honor them with pen & ink is fun :)

    @Kimoja I hear what you’re saying about the old photos. They take me back in time in my mind. They’re magical and inspirational.

    Great tribute piece. You can tell a lot of love went into this, it comes across not just in the warm colors but in the energetic pencil work as well.
