BEING FAMOUS...

[Guinness]

For the last couple of weeks the Duke has been getting bigger and bigger between the radio interviews, magazine writes ups such as the recent AU mag and even being played in London's very own Topshop!

However I believe that you are not exactly famous until a person puts all their heart and soul into scaring a canvas with paint!

This was done about a month ago by myself and I have been reluctant to post it up for fear someone has done one better than me a long long time ago. But anyway, here it is (*the colours accually do look more vibrant in real life*)

Nice one!!! What a talented bunch we have here!!

Great work, and very nice tribute. I bet Duke will be very proud.

Forgot to mention, it may look tiny but the canvas is accually 60x80cm

Thanks for the hits guys... I never usually show people my art.

And Steve, eventually when you become a famous pro photographer I shall put all my heart and soul into painting your features! :wink:

Well that just makes it all the more special when you do. Im the same, I never sing for people, well not for people I know. Ill stand up in front of a room of 800 strangers no bother though!! :) Sometimes its easier to show something that personal to people who are at a safe distance eh!!

Great work though. And like I said a lovely sentiment. Some amount of effort went into that. I feel like taking photos is cheating now. Us photographers have it easy :D

Wow thats really impressive. I wonder if thats the first Duke painting out there?! Well Done Guinness! Do you do may paintings of artists and if so who? I would love a sneaky peek! Good on ya :wink:

At the moment my theme in uni is "Inner Landscape" and part of the music i listen to goes with that. So therefore does the duke!

But i don't usually paint artists... I paint anything that makes me look at it and go "wow, what an image that could be"

You got any suggestions?

Wow, just seen this painting Guiness did of Duke! How cool is that! What ever happened to it, flogged on ebay perhaps??:D
