ART
FOR ARTS SAKE... APRIL 27, 2005 - MAY 1, 2005
I was recently asked to do a mural of Madonna by a best friend who just recently found out he has non-Hodgkin's lymphoma cancer. I was more than happy to do the mural as I knew it would be the only thing he would have to look forward to after being admitted into the hospital for the first (of many) hard-core chemotherapy treatments. After 45.5 hours over a 10-day period of time, I completed the mural that measures (roughly) 67" tall x 57" wide. It was completely drawn by hand with Prismacolor pencils. The addition of faux rhinestone gems that are glued to the mural truly make it "POP" (no pun intended). A "must-see" in person to appreciate it's grandeur, but I'm not sure Robert wants a bunch of people stopping by just to take a look at it... although I secretly know he'd relish the idea of showing (it) off. What follows is a day-to-day photo-docudrama of the process.
ENJOY!
