These old-timey stars have brought me lots of joy over the years. Painting them is my small way of keeping their memory alive. Acrylics on 16x20 canvas.

Hi Kay, thank you for the kind words. This is Buster Keaton. He was a comic actor mostly from the Silent Era.

I don't know who he is but I like that style of portrait. Beautiful.

 

[Jo Castillo]

Great likeness. I like the technique. I remember Buster. Oops, must be older than dirt! Ha.

 

[Artyczar]

I knew who it was right away. Excellent likeness and such a wonderful, stylized painting. Really well done!

Yikes! I'm only 55! Thanks for the kind words, Jo!

Thank you for the kind comments, Ayin. I've come to embrace stylized painting. I especially like the portraits of Earl Christy.

He was the first silent movie actor to make me laugh aloud in the Locomotive If my memory serves me well.

Oh yes, that was one of his best. About 10 years ago Mills Creek put out a Comedy Classics DVD collection that has a lot of Buster's short films. They're all good. Thanks!

Great job! Stylish and jazzy. Your portrait would have easily fit in with the actual times. Expertly done!

Thank you, Terri. That's one of the nicest things I've read about one of my portraits!
