I'm Mad Bro

A fine art reproduction of an original 16x20 oil painting on canvas. This reproduction is professionally printed on fine art watercolor paper. Why did I choose this type of paper? Watercolor paper is usually thick and the medium texture of this particular paper adds a nice touch to closer reflect the qualities of the original. Each reproduction will be signed, dated (according to month and year it was printed), and titled. This is an open edition reproduction. I would recommend getting this custom framed but if you're trying to save money, you can easily buy a mat and frame from your local frame store (I usually go to Michael's and use their on-going coupons). I would HIGHLY recommend bringing the reproduction with you when shopping, that way you won't be disappointed when you get home and realize, "hey that's not the right size!"

What inspired the original artwork?

I was pretty inspirationally hungry for vintage photos at this time and I decided to search the net. I found some super cool vintage mugshots that are public domain. I hadn't oil painted in a while and it was about the second time in the past 4-5 years that I took some oil paint to canvas. I first painted the dude and then looked into his eyes. It seemed like this was his resting face. I put myself in his position and I said to myself “Dang, I'm mad bro.” My cousin's Instagram is Immadbro and that always made me laugh so I want to give her credit for getting that stuck in my head! That's pretty much what came to mind when I see this guys face in the photo and put myself in his position.
