Artist's Comments




A portrait of my good friend, composer Justin Lassen.

The image is one of a series of paintings that I am currently working on in between work for a personal project, and it will also be the title image of an upcoming article/interview with Justin in 2DArtist magazine.


Right, and before you lay into me, I actually am enjoying this kind of style. It works for what I have in mind. ;]



Photoshop CS
+ close-ups: one | two | three
+ personal reference used for likeness and the general pose
+ I keep wondering how he'd walk in that outfit without tripping...

He's like a gatekeeper or guardian to some other world, perhaps the world of his mind??

Nice and mysterious...my cup of tea :)

whoa...that reminds me of a dream I had...

I love it! Beautiful work!

wow, i really love the color scheme.

Wandering through Justin Lassen's stuff is really interesting. The portrait seems less a portrait of his likeness than it is a portrait of his creativity. Dunno, makes sense to me *shrug*

omg he looks like a suave modern sexified harry potter matrix crossbreed.
i love the colours, especially all those hidden ones you've stashed into the highlights and shadows.
:iconmariketa:
stunning, his face is so interesting with that intense expression! The entire scene is captivating, beautiful work :love:
