Music and Musicians, The Guitarist, Sirkka Jalava

I will too begin the new theme with an "old" painting  The Guitarist. I had this in my blog for a few thays ago, when I  finally decided to release  it. You know the feeling, now i can´t do anything more for it. If I must, it must be a totally new painting.

    This is a beautiful, strong painting of the guitarist Sirkka. I love the colours and the personality that comes across in the painting.
    Thank you Sirkka for your answer about the Literature. I will see if you have your email address on your blog and answer you there. Jez

    Lovely painting of the guitarist! I like the extra detail you have given such clear detail to his hands that are playing the notes. This is music to my eyes.

      Thank you Joan, I wanted to have the hands as an important spot in the painting.

    Sirkka, you've really caught his pose: his skill and attention and power. The hands are excellent! And the expression on his face.

      Thanks Margaret! Yes, the expression on the face will illuminate a concentration on the music.

    oh this is a lovely painting of the Guitarist you have done . Sirkka.

    Everything about this painting is so detailed and he looks like I am watching him in life moving his hands and fingers..

    All I need is the music.

      Penny, thanks! I used acrylic colours in this, the size is 30x40 cm or 12"x15"3/4. It is good to be curious!
