  1. this right here is too fregging beautiful it looks like a real photo of Jimmy i'm not kidding I seen your other art work i'm speechless this is too damn beautiful. I do want this as my default pic on my twitter page lol. Blair do you have a twitter page?

    Thanks! I'm glad you like my work! I haven't posted much here lately, but I did finish a big Robert oil painting for a gallery exhibit featuring Midlands musicians...sorry that this is only a detail from the full size painting, which shows Robert in all his full regal-ness. That's just too big to upload here...its the full body version. I have this on my website and Memories In Music's website:

    As to Twitter...Indeed I do... @cynthiablair Though I don't tweet much. I do use that particular drawing of Jimmy alot in my promo cards and such...

  2. Ms. Blair,

    I have a VERY hard time convincing myself that your magnificent works are drawings. Oh, what I would give to have talent like that.

    Absolutely superb job. I too would love to see more! :D

    Thanks so much for the compliment! I do strive for a very accurate likeness but not photo-realism. When you view the full size image you can easily see the charcoal strokes-I use charcoal pencils (black and white) on gray illustration board. Actual drawing size is 9 x12, approx.

    As far as talent goes, it's 5% talent and 95% practice! Of course, I've been drawing all my life...there's always room for improvement! I usually post most of my drawings on DeviantArt, but as I am working on Zep these days, I will post all those drawings here also.

  3. oh my god. that is just so well done, it's just like a photo! just stunning, congrats.

    It's pretty much a reflection of how I see Jimmy...I guess my portraits say how I feel about him better than I could ever put into words. I'm really glad you like it! I came across some great recent photos of him, so I'll post those drawings when I finish them. I love his white hair.

  4. That is really beautiful. Your others are too. I love how you made his eyes show up.

    Thanks! As you can tell, Jimmy's my favorite, but I'll be drawing the other guys also. Finding good large sharp photos is the challenge. I'm glad you like it!
