Portrait of artist brainfree (United Kingdom)
Added on Sept. 14, 2009 09:37
Watercolor



As promised another Clint Eastwood this time Dirty Harry. I took the Iconic poster image and drew a slightly new one different clearer more of a portrait than a pastiche of the original portrait. What I say is if your going to copy first make it good then if possible better than the original.

awesome !! hello brainfree how do you do??

 brainfree - 14/09/09, 12:17 reply
Thank you, :grin: :8)

 brainfree - 15/09/09, 11:02 reply
Thank you, How! Have you got three hours to me art is about originality, technique and likeness and this is attained by the hard work of practice, perseverance and patience. Have you noticed that was a little prepared I have been asked that over and overs so I have tried to think about it. Never give up always try to be better don't dipare as it will happen and when it does it is a wonderful Gift and all the things like Magic and Mystery will mean more then. On a unpopular thing to talk about God has help me all my life and his help is a blessing. Brian. :grin: :grin: :8)

wow , this is so cool . sorry that i haven't commented some of your works , i quite feel bad because i am sick and new i have temperature also but i try to write some comment :) i am not sure what is that white thing in that corner but it seems so interesting to me :) red color is very cool , it stands out , why red color ? does this show some emotion or some event? very interesting look , he looks confused , he doubts , but at the same time he seems angry to me , this comes from inside of him . i can't understand how can you show emotions so well or give something with the colors .. this is a real art :) wonderful work :)

 brainfree - 15/09/09, 11:10 reply
Thank you, Next look after your self thing about getting better not art. The corner thing is light or flash of the gun. Bang. I have drawn a pastiche which is a long word for copy of a famous poster from the early 70's but I painted Clint better than the original if your going to copy make it better. The colour well you would have to ask the ordinal artist but I think it's to show action and rage. Ist's better to0 ask questions because it makes you mind work well, that's my opinion anyway. Brian. :grin: :8) :angry:

 AjaaLeenuOlen - 15/09/09, 12:22 reply
thanks for that explanation , you have got very interesting point of view and your answers are very interesting , really like that :)

 brainfree - 15/09/09, 11:13 reply
Your English is OK it's very very good I understand every word. I used the angry facwe to show why the paoster red angry is red. Great questions. :grin: :grin: :grin: :8) :clap:

 brainfree - 15/09/09, 11:24 reply
Thank you, I love people saying g that because I'm always trying to make my work better, so I will have to Paint something even more stunning. I can not believe that this poster is so far back in the minds of every body it was inspiration to me to paint it, in the 70’s but my lack of skills prevented it. The changes I have made it I took it from a poster to a portrait by making Clint’s face much better than the original. I hope I can make something again you will like. Brian. :grin: :8)

 -Missi- - 15/09/09, 14:05 reply
brain, your artwork is amazing. You changed a bit your style now...you putted in more details and I like it very much. Its so difficult to draw with watercolor and you are the master of it :ok: Brain, would please draw someone of the band Blockparty or Carl Barat? I want to see it in Watercolourwork :love: It would be very nice. :blowkiss: :hi:

 brainfree - 15/09/09, 20:58 reply
Yes for the paintings it will take a little longer. I paint in three styles within my own style One detailed, one very coloured and a simple type. I don't know which will come out it is a bit of a lottery it's from painting illustrations sand pop art over many years it was very difficult to move away from comic book type work I still retain that deep down feeling as it's where I started. Brian. :grin: :8)

 brainfree - 16/09/09, 14:35 reply
he blockparty band will tke a long time as no good photo's for me to make and original. I trust that Carl Barât is an English musician and most recently, actor. He was the frontman and lead guitarist of Dirty Pretty Things. If it is him I will confirm I've started. :grin: :8)

 -Missi- - 16/09/09, 19:56 reply
aww brian, i am looking forward to Carld Drawing. Yes its Carl of the bands Libertines and Dirty Pretty Things. I`ve met him last year in berlin. I loves the band Dirty Pretty Things. Thank You so much. A great big Hug! :hug: :hi:

 brainfree - 16/09/09, 22:08 reply
I've done the early sketch for two but the completion my be in a little while as I'm busy tommorow Thursday and there are 15 in my half done carrying case. Mind I like the subject unfornuatly the choices of the block party group are not enough at present for me to find more than one phot close up I'm sure I will find some soon. :grin: :8)

Thank you, it's what I did ten years ago made my own posters and LP covers to be art on a wall I have them now dating back to 1979 their on my walls in the house my wife loves them. My greatest diapointment was when CD stopped being art work and went over to being photo's I did all the TV series of 80's all A3 big and even bigger. I feel quite misty now for yesterday. Brian, Onwards and forwards change is wonderful. Learn a new thing every day. :grin: :grin: :8)
