Hi Newbie here!
I'm drawing Iconic people at the moment. I'll be working on Jazz and Blues Musicians in a week or so. Anyone got any suggestions? cheers in advance. |

I'd start with Sun Ra, very interesting person for a portrait.

This is somewhat related, but a while ago I found this site which may prove useful for finding good images to draw from.
http://jazzinphoto.wordpress.com/ Also, please post your art! I'd love to see it. Edited by Dylbean - 05 Jul 2011 at 10:41am |

If an organisation sees you making money off their product dead or
alive, they'll come looking for you. Still a hell of a lot of people
still do it especially on Ebay.
Amazing how artist like Peter Blake get away with it. His Elvis silkscreen print is above £4,000, and he just cuts out the images. Fats Waller Great Idea! Jazz P remainds me of a laurel and Hardy I drew. Hes' got the face for a toon. Never thought of a cartoon. |

Pops, Satchmo or Louis Armstrong. Does not get anymore iconic than that.
