Tinashé is Zimbabwean-born music from the UK. He was recently featured on UK Channel 4's Intros and recently released his album Saved. I'm really enjoying Tinashé's Mbira version of Zambezi along with A-Liar, Pieces of Paper, and Saved (acoustic).
Here is a painting I just completed last night. I learned quite a bit from the process because I was able to use a number of techniques that I've been studying and observing with regards to colour and texture. The painting was based on this picture posted on my Tumblr page. So many things about the image resonated with me. I'm curious to see how what interpretations people take from this piece.
I came across these by Paul Steven Bailey and was intrigued because I've never seen watercolour with such texture and definition. Paul Bailey's choice of colour also produces a vibrant and sometimes contrasting effect which I like. The painting were done on gesso primed paper which adds to the texture.
