Members Stackabones Posted March 2, 2009 Members Share Posted March 2, 2009 My good friend Sonny Williams painted this! He's primarily a poet, writer, editor and imbiber of good, strong drink, but lately he's started painting. This is the second portrait I've had done, but my first as a musician. And this is probably the first of the uke. Here's a cool knife painting of a pineapple he did over the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to be an artist's model, and I don't miss having random body parts fall asleep He did it from memory and photos and vids, I guess. Not sure that I could sit still that long with a uke.

Members babablowfish Posted March 3, 2009 Members Share Posted March 3, 2009 Really nice. I agree it should be your Avatar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaveAronow Posted March 3, 2009 Members Share Posted March 3, 2009 Your buddy is very talented. This coming from a hack wannabe artist. I am a hack, but I am good enough to realize how bad I am, but good enough to recognize talent from an "insiders" perspective. Your buddy has alot of raw natural talent. The pineapple is exceptional.

Members OldGuitarPlayer Posted March 3, 2009 Members Share Posted March 3, 2009 I like those paintings! I love art that is colorful and somewhat "folky" so this is the stuff I like to see. Very talented!!! I too strongly support the idea that your portrait should be your new avatar.... ....sounds like we need a poll on this...???:poke: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
