Happy to reveal my finished piece “When doves cry” for the upcoming Prince themed show next month at Studios 5663 hosted and curated by the incredibly talented John L Gascot. We were all tasked to reimagine an iconic Prince song and translate it to canvas in our own ways. I went a different direction with my work than what I normally do for this show . It’s a tribute /memorial piece to the late great artist. Instead of something super silly that I am known for (I did try originally to go that route, but every time I did with my song, it felt forced), I chose to take it in a more serious direction. I am so glad I did, all the pieces began to fall in place with the construction of the piece. There is still a semi hidden pun, to the extent that I chose a “mourning”dove crying to symbolize the loss of this iconic performer.
I encourage you to see the show next month . There are a lot of incredible artists participating in this show that you won’t wanna miss. #prince #whendovescry #theartistformerlyknownasprince #tribute #iconic #workinprogress #wip #color #colorpalette #behindthescenes #fiveduecesgreenbuilding
