Jasper's Music Mayhem

Jasper's Music Mayhem:
   Completed: 5/26/2010   Size: 18x24
 This painting is based off of Jasper John's
style. It is in acrylic paint rather than encaustic
and it took me about four days to paint. Like Jasper
Johns, I drew in my music with pencil before painting
over it and focused on one block at a time once I began
to paint it. I absolutely hated this piece at first, but it is
starting to grow on me. For some reason it is every bodies
favorite. The colors were too drab so I added white which,
I think, made it look worse. Though so many people like it
they can't tell that it is supposed to be music.
