A couple of years ago I saw Gregory Porter perform at the Assembly Hall in Tunbridge Wells. After the performance Mr Porter kindly gave me permission to take some photos so that I might paint a portrait of him. I was there with my wife and parents, and we still talk about the great performance he and his accompanying musicians gave that evening. I believe that he is one of the most exciting musical artists of our time, and continue to be a fan of his work.
It has taken me a while to complete the portrait so I’m especially pleased to be able to post a picture of it on my website at last! The original currently has pride of place above our dining room table. I designed a pattern for the painting’s background which is almost completely obscured, but is still visible in a subtle way that I’m really pleased with.
