Dizzy Gillespie Portrait
Posted on Feb 28, 2005 in Drawings & Sketches, Portrait Drawings
Something a little different this morning in celebration of the “Jazz” topic over at Illustration Friday. It’s one of my favorites… a pencil portrait drawing of jazz legend Dizzy Gillespie. I found some great Dizzy Gillespie photos at my library a while back so I drew one. Enjoy! If you’re interested in getting a print of this piece contact me here and I’ll send you the details.

I’d probably exclaim something like superb… you know, if i weren’t absolutely speechless. Extraordinary!

Wow. I have only emotion that cannot be replicated in speech, but it can be approached by saying “Wow.”
