I was at a store.

I saw Kerrang number 1165.

I bought it.

I went home.

I opened it to page 20.

I found this picture.

I fell in love.

And I knew I had to do something with it. Draw it, paint it, whatever. I LOVE the original photo. It. Is. Amazing.

I chose to make a painting, since I had this canvas lying around and felt like using it. It's done with acrylic paint, since I already had those, plus I'm getting used to them by now.

I painted it a bit different though. Black on white in stead of white on black ... and also, I worked with layers in a way which I don't usually do. It was fun, and I learned a lot.

Original piece is 90x30 cm, which is why the quality of this particular picture may not be so good; I had to scan it in sections and then try to put them together in Photoshop. In real life, though, this painting actually makes me smile.

In the article in Kerrang, it said that the photos were taken by Paul Harries, Chris Casey and MCR. So one of them should get credit for the original picture (which is gorgeous). Hail to whoever took it!

And ... yeah. That's about it, really.
