Wow! That painting of Brian looks just like him!
Logged

I, I love the colorful clothes she wears, and she's already working on my brain. I only looked in her eyes, but I picked up something I just can't explain. I, I bet I know what she’s like, and I can feel how right she’d be for me. It’s weird how she comes in so strong, and I wonder what she’s picking up from me. I hope it’s good, good, good, good vibrations, yeah!!

As Brian would say "Well I'll be god-damned"! Perfect likeness of the master. Smiley

The Brianista Prayer

Oh Brian
Thou Art In Hawthorne,
Harmonied Be Thy name
Your Kingdom Come,
Your Steak Well Done,
On Stage As It Is In Studio,
Give Us This Day, Our Shortenin' Bread
And Forgive Us Our Bootlegs,
As We Also Have Forgiven Our Wife And Managers,
And Lead Us Not Into Kokomo,
But Deliver Us From Mike Love.
Amen.  ---hypehat

Who knew? Two visual artists in the BBs -- Blondie and David -- very interesting.

I can only imagine how Brian would've reacted if he had seen this painting of him in 1966 instead of David Anderle's.

On our way through this "backstage" maze, Bruce joined up with the group and said hello, singing "It Never Rains in Southern California" and joking with some of the older ladies. I'm not sure if they knew he was a Beach Boy or simply an enthusiastic elderly gay gentleman.

Oh wow, that's a great painting! Very clever of Blondie to colorize Brian, in lots of bright tones. I like his quirky avant-garde vision. Thanks for sharing, Mr. Edelson! Already saved it to my comp (chose the largest size) & made it a new wallpaper.

Brian would most certainly be blown away & say sth. like "Heyya, this is very nice, dude" & have a big SMiLE.

It'a great that he went for the sideburns look.

Took me a few minutes to transition from "random lines of random colors" to "guy with a small body and huge head sitting at a piano".

All you need is to notice his single eye (from the side) & go down from that. Gradually, you'll get the whole picture.

Very cool! Much different than what I thought a Blondie Chaplin painting would look like.

Would love to hang a copy on my wall but alas can't even almost afford to bid on it and I'm not down with a bootleg version because that wouldn't be cool.

Thanks for idea, stack! I've got tons of frames, so am ready to print the painting in a glitter photo paper & insert it into a frame; hang right above my keyboard - easy, ain't it? 3D
