Michael Jackson 16
I thought that this broken glass effect would resonate with some aspect of Michael Jackson’s character…
Michael Jackson 14
Motivated by the great interest and compliments I received about my Michael Jackson portraits, I have done another one yesterday, and it might be the start of another series of him…
But it is difficult to come up with new stuff. Michael has been painted so many times… whole sites are dedicated to art featuring him!
So I juts try to catch him in different views and lights.. I geenrally like it a lot when he is evanescent, almost transparent, almost like a ghost, which, i think, fits quite well to the new sad situation…
Although of course, he will never reach the state of ghost, Michael is omnipresent for ever, in the hearts and thoughts of the people who loved him. i am one of them. And this will never change…
Michael Jackson 13 and Halloween
Some weeks ago, in a kind of trance state, I painted a series of Michael Jackson portraits, until I was totally saturated… and depressed that this extraordinary musician is no more physically among us. When I paint portraits, I really have to go into the person,to look at him from the inside. And after my 12 portraits of Michael, I kind of felt as if I was Michael Jackson himself… totally alive, yet dead! A weird dichotomy, and I had to stop, so as not to end up in the asylum! I thought I could never paint him again.
But well, I have a very versatile character, and I am not scared at all of self contradictions… so here it is, my 13th portrait…
By the way, I have been working for an e card company for some months now, and I have just created a Halloween card with this new painting. I hope the people who loved Michael won’t be offended by this black humour… the best medicine against sadness is and has always been laughter
“Il faut vite en rire avant d’en pleurer!”
said some French wise guy ;;
alors, Mesdames et Messieurs, pour Halloween, faisons-nous peur et rions! 
Michael Jackson 11: still singing… from beyond the veil
It;s nornally really not my way to paint chocking stuff… but yesterday, in the oment I was thinking my last Michael Jackson portrait would be the last for a ong time, I just had a vision… and I couldn’t help, it had to be painted. So here it is
(Sorry if some Michael’s fans feel hurt in their feelings. i am a huge fan myself, and feel hurt by my own painting, not being able to cope with the hard reality of his physical death…)
