Painting - Painting/ Indian Ink On Sketch Paper
Description
A portrait I did of Don Williams in 1982 at the height of his fame when I was a real countrier at the time, I even had a Stetson...I was a member of the local country club that used to meet for country music and live gigs. I've seen Don live at my local theatre and enjoyed his show, love his romantic songs, such as Amanda, You're My Friend and Missing You. The song Country Boy was a big hit. Don's music is gentle and melodious, like him. I did this originally in black Indian ink on white sketch paper and it's very effective with the shirt folds, checks and wrangler denims, also looks good in the Sepia and cream filtered version and his famous cowboy hat. This ink painting in watercolour style is a firm fav amongst my contemporaries, and yes I used to be well know for sketching Don during my cowgirl days in the 1980's as country music was a craze that swept Britain in those days of people of 30 ish upwards. With fond memories of those foot tapping days. Looks really good on the tee shirts and throw pillows accessories that are now available as well as looking rather stunning as a framed print in a black frame and even better with an added black edged white mount
