Janelle Monae, Tatyana Fazlalizadeh, Oil on Canvas, 2010
So, Janelle Monae is pretty amazing.
I saw her live for the first time a couple weeks ago here in Philadelphia.
And I was blown away. Blooown away.
I did this portrait in about 2 hours. I try to paint pretty quickly when I’m making these time-lapse videos. I’ll probably go back into the painting later to just clean it up – add more details, fix anything that needs to be fixed, check the proportions of her face, etc…
Check out the video!
[...] See Taty paint. [...]
i’m wit the eyebrows and bottom left corner of the background especially. yup.
I saw her last year in Brooklyn when she opened for Of Montreal. The crowd was blown away.
Great job!
Love Janelle, love “Tightrope,” love your art… thanks for sharing this!
Wonderful paint!
Kisses, from Brazil!
