Matt

Well, it's done. I know you all must be tired of seeing this (i think i posted it 3 times now) so i gave it a different tint, just for variety. To the musicians out there, please forgive my harsh rendition of the guitar. I tried to paint the feeling of music rather than a portrait of Matt Mays. More than just painting what i see, I'm trying to capture the emotion. I'm finding myself more & more comfortable with less & less detail. Less is more. :o) I'm pretty happy with this one. 
Carpe Diem folks.

matt mays, take 2

Only about an hour to go & it's done. I'm trying to keep it soft & loose, but not so sure I've captured this softness (or as my friend would say, his "furi-ness") :o) I may have even pushed it too far already...? Regardless, the important thing is: I am having a grand time here, painting & listening to music. I hope you all find some time during the week as well for whatever makes you happy or brings you at least some sense of satisfaction.
