Noel Gallagher commission. This one, like the Hamilton piece, was for the client’s grandson, and again the brief was very open ended. I felt inclined to go for Gallagher in his prime with the iconic Union Jack guitar, track suit, and of course the “V for victory” gesture. The composition was tricky here as I went back and forth on whether to keep things tight and close-up or whether to go for a full body shot, but ultimately the fully body just didn’t fit well on the page. The guitar was a bastard to get right as well!
Cheers
