| Miguel Bose portrait in graphite, watercolor and watercolor pencils... |
Meow there, Monday! It's another portrait! I really miss doing them. This one is of latin singer Miguel Bose. One of my fave singers! As mentioned previously, I recently revisited my old digital music archive... Went through them and decided to search for those old time fave songs on YouTube. Found a treasure trove of new songs! Well, maybe they're old songs for some, but for me they're new. Anyway, found some great Miguel Bose songs, and have been listening to them and those of Alejandro Fernandez and Franco de Vita's for the past several weeks... Sooooooo loving these songs!!! Don't think you can ever get sick and tired of great songs... =^.^=
I kind of got bored of doing all black and grey graphite portraits... Thought I'd add a bit of color to "brighten it up", make it a bit more interesting. Light layers of watercolor pencils (and wash), smudged graphite and watercolor. The "finished" portrait isn't what I had pictured in my mind. I wanted to do it rather sketchy and with bold, stroke-y background... My hand seems to have it's own idea of how to go about it though... LOL...
Had a rather hard time deciding which of his songs to include in this blogpost... Soooooo many beautiful songs but I don't want to make this blogpost too long. "Morena Mia" and "Nena" have to be included of course. Had them in my archive and were my faves then... and still are, especially with these live versions!
Loving this song even more after checking out the translation of the lyrics online...
Playful, flirty and a little naughty... ;-)
This is my new "happy song"!!!
"En silencio y en secreto, te amare..." I love this line!!!
Sometimes I get goosebumps while listening to his ballads...
