For these talented women, I decided to handle them with a more delicate style than I am used to. I chose to use soft pastel colors in the background contrasted with the strong visual effect of the black and white subjects. I added some just off-color splashes in the background and incorperated those colors into the clothing of the figures.

You can check out the step-by-step process HERE

Finished pieces are HERE under my newly named "All Finished Paintings" section.

]]>Breaking Bad Series Part 1http://www.artbytony.com/home/2012/1/16/breaking-bad-series-part-1.htmlTony Capurro2012-01-16T17:56:33Z2012-01-16T17:56:33ZHere is my first painting of the new year:

"Walt" is Part 1 of 2 in my Breaking Bad series. Still some details to be worked out until its 100% complete. Bryan Cranston plays Walt perfectly on AMC's Breaking Bad. He delicately balances the intimidating and intense meth manufacturer he is forced to become with the kind and caring family figure and high school teacher he is so familiar with. He was recently nominated for a Golden Globe and has won several Emmy Awards for his excellent portrayal of this character.

I have been working on a ton of works during December - mainly commissions. In my latest work, the two baddest vampire hunters ever - Blade and Buffy, team up to kick some serious ass. Blade 4 is rumored to be in writing and Joss Whedon (creator of Buffy) directed the upcoming Avengers... Anyway, you can check out some of my process here, as well as a few others I just updated on there. 

I have very big plans for the new year. As always I would love to take suggestions as to who I should paint, leave ideas in the comments. I have a few in mind that I am very excited about and I have serveral "series" in mind to complete within the next few months. I also aim to get as many prints done of already completed works as possible. And yes, this includes "Hova" the Jay-Z print, as I know this one is in high demand. 

Thanks for all the support and I look forward to a huge year with Art by Tony Capurro!

But I respect them, and I respect Rooney for what he has done. He is one of the best pure strikers of the modern generation. United fans have dubbed him "The White Pele".

]]>Hovahttp://www.artbytony.com/home/2011/8/16/hova.htmlTony Capurro2011-08-16T23:32:44Z2011-08-16T23:32:44ZJay-Z is now complete. If you bought a Kanye print, this would go great along side it. Hova prints to come soon... 

"Watch the Throne" is now available on iTunes. It is a collaboration CD with two of hip-hops greatest artists. Jay-Z is widely considered one of the greatest rappers of all time and is certainly thought to be the best right now. Personally, he is my favorite musican ever.

The Blueprint 2 CDs are still in rotation in my car.  Certainly can't wait to get more into this Watch the Thone Album. 

The painting style is very similar to the Kanye piece. I actually set Kanye up next to my canvas so I could emulate the style/colors. 

Enjoy

]]>Donald Gloverhttp://www.artbytony.com/home/2011/7/11/donald-glover.htmlTony Capurro2011-07-11T15:52:22Z2011-07-11T15:52:22ZMy latest piece is inspired by Donald Glover- star in NBC's Community and ex-writer on 30 Rock. He is an up-and-coming rap artist, performing under the name Childish Gambino. His stand up comedy routines have been featured on Comedy Central throughout the past few years. Recently, there has been a Twitter campaign to try and get Donald cast as Spiderman in the new film. 

Donald is someone to keep an eye on as one of Hollywoods brightest new multitalented stars. 

You can keep up with his inspirations at his website/blog at www.iamdonald.com 

Check out the gallery of his painting in process here.
