Live Painting with Willie, Wilco and Me

My 60 x 48 sketch of Willie Nelson ready to be painted live during his Sunday Night set at The Pilgrimage Festival.

Large and Up Front for the Pilgrimage Festival in Franklin, TN

In very cool news, I will be live painting in front of the main stage on both Saturday and Sunday night at the Pilgrimage Festival in Franklin, TN (September 26-27, 2015). That means I'll be the live entertainment during the live entertainment. So, I think that makes me meta-live-entertainment! Anyway, the crowd is expected to be around 15,000 both nights. This will the largest live painting I've ever done by a long shot. And I can't wait! Saturday night I will be painting Wilco and Sunday will be the man himself: Willie Nelson. 

Wilco has 6 members in their band and I've decided that I'm going to do a group portrait of all of them. Traditionally, I only do one subject per canvas, so this one is going to be a bit different. Looking forward to see how this works out. Willie gets the show all to himself and both will be on 5-foot canvases.

I will have a booth set up during the day, so be sure to come by and say "hey." I'll have prints, reproductions, and perhaps an original or two for sale. And, I'll also be offering free drop-shipping on any prints purchased there.
