Hendrix by Jeff Lafferty
Medium: Acrylic and colored pencil on illustration board.
The complexities of the lighting and smoke made this a very challenging project.
You need to ask Andrés. I did and he was cool about it but didn't give me any general use license info. His website doesn't seem to be working at the moment.30Jun2020
Hendrix Graffiti
The biggest stencil Cavalera has ever done. His tribute to the greatest. It took him 6 days to cut the stencil and 3 days to paint. It rained on one of the days which is why the hair is a bit odd.
It's made up of 3 stencils. One for the guitar, one for the sig and the main one for Jimi Hendrix himself.
For his typography class, Kubah had to make by hand a poster that represented a decade of his choosing, so he chose the late 60s.The type had to represent the era as well. It was stapled to a bainbridge board.
The afro says "Jimi Hendrix experience"
The words surrounding Hendrix's face say "When I was a little boy, I believed that if you put a tooth under your pillow, a fairy would come in the night and take away the tooth and leave a dime. Now, I believed in myself more than anything."
The bubbles say "one night only" on the left and "Friday may 10th" on the right.
Project was to create a typographical solution for a favorite artist, musician, quote or song lyric. I chose Jimi Hendrix and created a portrait using the lyrics from several of his songs to create his face.
An exciting drawing from Crumbnumber1 at Fiverr.com
I wanted to visualize Jimi's ability to transcend sound with his guitar and really excite the listener's brain to a level we don't experience with most other things. He stands out.
This T-Shirt Graphic looks like watercolor but it's all digital.
The illustration was made for a friend and then the T-Shirt was a B-Day gift.
Both vector and digital watercolor brushes were mixed in Photoshop to make it.
