2 Paco Paintings

I asked my mother to make some paintings from Paco, Tomatito, Camaron, etc, for my rooms. These are 2 from Paco.
I think she did it mostly with some kind of pencil and a little different style.
There will come more from Paco, and next is Tomate.

Thanks!

She was going to make the guitar with 4 strings where i jumped and said NOOOO,,,,6 strings,,,,she said,

" is that really that important for you ? the facial expression is more important imo"

" i said YES IT IS !!! the strings and the guitar are important too !! please be careful"

LOL

Thats always a big turnoff for me. Sometimes I see paintings with guitars that COULD be beautiful if the painter had payed some attention to the instrument.

Also, there must be a trend where all guitarists on paintings are left handed...

Those are very nice, she captured a "something" that brought me memories from seeing him live at the Bass Hall Performing Arts Center in Fort Worth, Texas. I wish I could tell you what that "something" is but can't express it.

Those are intense, she really captured the emotion in his face when he plays. Definitely can't wait to see more.

There is no way in hell I would ever be able to come up with something even remotely close to that. Respect!

Nice Deniz. Tell your mother that we like her art. (And tell her...she should not draw Pacos fingers so dangerously close to the soundhole man!) ;)

Not that..

I asked why so many painters paint left handed guitarists.. seems like they used a decal and in the process the image got reversed and they didnt notice lol

Maybe because they wish they were lefties? Actually, I hardly see any paintings of left handed guitarists. Now cartoons, I often see characters with a guitar playing left handed.

Interesting, I once asked my sister do do a painting of my sailboat, she
did a wonderful job but there was something wrong with the rigging, some
angle was wrong and i couldn't look at the painting without feeling unsettled.
With these wonderfull pictures my eye went straight to the fret spacing.
