Day 24: Illmatic

Today’s artwork of choice is another #DEMusicBlock called, Illmatic, featuring New York rapper Nas. For this one we focused on more of a realism style compared to our last one with Lil Wayne. In the background is light blue and white gouache used to make his facial features pop. The sizing of this one is a little different compared to others. It is set at 4×6 inches instead of our normal 8×8 inches. Most of the time, I leave the legendary music artists in the game for the 4×6 inch paintings and newer artists for 8×8 inch, but sometimes I may switch it up to give a bit of variety. It just depends on how I feel and what blank blocks are available for use at the time. The 4×6 inch pieces also have different names from the 8×8 inch ones. This one is named after Nas’ first album, ‘Illmatic’.

This piece is already available for purchase on our Storenvy merchant site at this link. Each #DEMusicBlock comes with a FREE frame for you to display your new artwork in your home, office or even your very own studio. Enjoy!
