This piece is based off of Gershin's "Rhapsody in Blue".

It's a gorgeous composition, full of life, spirit, and feeling. Making this to match was certainly a challenge, as the song is fifteen minutes long, has several motifs, and is a jazz-classical mix that you don't hear every day. I finished with a 16-colour palette and had to shave it down to match the challenge rules. I may try and draw this composition again. I feel like I did not quite capture all of it in the canvas, though I am happy with what I have so far! |
Wonderful use of color.. I love it.
