Bob Marley Obsession
08Dec09
Who do you know (squares not included) that didn’t have a Bob Marley obsession at one point, or still does for that matter? Mine was during high school. Big surprise. It took me six years to complete this suitable homage to the man. Oil on canvas, 18″x24″. Everyone loves Bob.
I intently belabored, really crafted, the light radiating from his crown to help visualize how music affects people who really feel it- it’s a Crown Chakra thing. Yeah, those are angel wings. You can’t separate the music from the man. His music was and is his vehicle, a vehicle of light. We need a little bit of that here in the future.
