Extra Inspired - Joanna/Basquiat

The following was written by Joanna.  You can also see this inspired creation on her blog.  I love Jean-Michel Basquiat's work, it is fantastic.  I always have had a thing for the paintings he produced, so when I saw that this was a February "extra inspiration" over at ACoLab, I thought yey!

Below top: Basquiat's Brown Spots, (Portrait of Andy Warhol as a Banana) 1984
Below bottom: Homage to Jean-Michel Basquiat; (Portrait of Andy Warhol as a Banana)

This was such a lot of fun doing it that I am going to push myself to see if I can capture some more homages to him and his work as he is my muse for February.


Thanks Joanna!!  If you would like to submit your own creation inspired by one of the monthly "extra inspirations" please do.  Also, feel free to join us for our monthly submissions due on the 5th and 20th of every month.  Happy creating!
