"Don't gain the world and lose your soul; wisdom is better than silver or gold. Who we are means so much more than what we have!"
Color pencil on paper
18 x 24
A tribute to the “Father of Reggae” rendered in the intimate medium of color pencil on paper. This portrait of Bob Marley seeks to go beyond the icon and find the man. The vibrant yellow and green aren’t just colors; they represent a lifeline to his heritage and his message of “One Love”. The hand drawn line of his facial features, his guitar and the spliff that hangs loosely between his fingers, capture a lifetime of wisdom and a spirit that remains as resonant today as it was in 1970’s Kingston, Jamaica.
