It seems like the best art is the stuff we do for fun. This is definitely one of my favorites.

alex- I hear ya , I've listened to Cave's music for over twenty yrs and yet had never done a portrait of him. I just felt compelled to do it. I've seen live at least six times , and have always come away from the concert inspired.

Bunklife - thanks for swinging by , knew YOU would like it ;-)

Your work is getting better by the minute, Dom!...I love your "DO IT YOURSELF MANUAL" style of drawing. It create a fantastic "alienating" effect in the moments of pathos of your comics.
I mean "alienation" as distance, in a Brechtian sense.
All the best!

Great mood you've got goin on here..

How's toronto these days? Work still slow?

Dominic Bugatto said...

Oscar - always a pleasure , thanks for the kind words

Abz - glad ya like it , you can't do Cave properly and not strive for some kind of 'mood ' , works always a touch quiet at the tail end of summer , but luckily it's been consistent. Thanks for stopping by.

oh man that is so bad (and yet excellent, of course)

would you believe--my only personal reference for nick cave is the end of 'wings of desire.'

Dominic Bugatto said...

lotusgreen - great film , I seem to remember they show him playing two songs at the nightclub the angel goes to.

Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds are a bit of an acquired taste , most either love his music or hate it.

He wrote the screenplay for The Proposition , a great Aussie film , and has done the musical scores for numerous films including the upcoming adaptation of Cormac McCarthy's 'The Road', which by the way is a great read.
