Bruce Springsteen
Acrylic on masonite, 24 x 33 inches (2012)

One of a series of paintings about singers and players . . .

No one wearing a shirt and blue jeans is more recognizable than Bruce Springsteen. He sells out concert halls on a rumour; in real life, within 10 minutes. Unless I pick up super powers along the way, I'll never be fast enough to buy a Bruce Springsteen ticket.

Ah well . . .

He's called Blue Bruce here as he is painted in various tones of ultramarine blue, along with dashes of white and Payne's Gray. It seemed a good choice in light of his casual, almost working man attire: he would look so out of place in a suit somehow.
