Bob Dylan Portrait

 
Bob Dylan, watercolor, 8 x 10 inches, 2025   Sold
 
  My new painting of Bob Dylan. My interest to paint this portrait was piqued after seeing the recent movie, A Complete Unknown. Even though the movie deals with Dylan's early parts of his career and his decision to go electric, I choose to work from the black and white photograph from Ken Regan. 
  I relied on my past experience of figurative oil painting instruction, to help get the desired effects and color modeling I wanted. Regan took his photograph during the 1975 Rolling Thunder Revue tour. It was sort of a come back tour in which Dylan had a minstrel look, which included his colorful scarves and his hat with flowers attached.
