When I was studying images of Freddie to paint, I came across a quote of his, “I won’t be a rock star. I will be a legend.” I wish I would have been able to see and hear him perform live. His talent, his spirit, his bravery and his music live on and yes, he is a legend.
Painting this portrait of Freddie Mercury was an electrifying experience. His dynamic stage presence and unique style came to mind, capturing his charisma and passion. I painted him faster and with a blend of admiration and excitement, channeling the energy of his performances into my art. His expressive features and the bold colors associated with his persona definitely pushed me to experiment and push my creative boundaries.
