For the PRS Facebook Crypto contest in June, I decided to do an original image that the winner of the Crypto contest would receive the first autographed print. At first I was going to do some kind of Crypto as the painting, and even was thinking of doing a Japanese ghost, since I had been researching that for a while. In the end, I decided on an image that had been playing around in my head for a while.
Earlier this year I had done a painting of the Archangel Gabriel; which hangs in my office now, and from that came the thought of a sort of modern version of him on this earth. Gabriel soon became a 1920's New Orleans trumpet playing street performer. I put him in nice dress pants, button up shirt, and vest, with a fedora to top it off. From the looks of the painting, he traded his halo for the hat and the chance to play his trumpet all he wants. I will be making prints of this new painting, and then selling them on my blog and possible at the upcoming Field Trip in August at Salem, Mass.
The Winner of the June contest was Nicole Michaud who did a video of an "Investigation" of a Russian Crypto creature. You can check out the video on our facebook page.
