Inspired by Nick Cave and The Bad Seed's song Stagger Lee this is a character portrait I have developed for fun and because I have really got into the song recently (in fact the whole Murder Ballads LP.)
I have been experimenting with colour a lot recently and that continues in this image, but I also wanted to incorporate some "new" influences in the way I developed the image. I have always been a fan of the drawings of Tom of Finland, their overt sexuality appeals to my straight-but-solid personality and their genuine physical affection is often touching. If you have never seen Tom's work then please do check it out :)
