Finally, after years of requests (badgering) by fans, I’m creating this painting of Gene Simmons.
I’m honored to collaborate again with photographer Jim Grant, painting from his image of Gene which he shot at Harvey’s Casino in Lake Tahoe, Nevada, USA.
Gene Simmons, born on August 25, 1949 is a musician, entrepreneur, and philanthropist, best known as the bassist and co-lead singer of the hard rock band Kiss. Gene co-founded the band in the early 1970’s with Paul Stanley, Ace Frehley, and Peter Criss. Simmons also goes by his stage persona, "The Demon".
Gene Simmons was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2014 as a member of Kiss.
If you’re a die-heart KISS fan, you’re in the right place. I have great expectations for this piece.
Shown above is the small 7" x 9" colored pencil sketch which will guide the 28" x 40" oil painting.
When the painting is completed, 100 high quality giclee prints will be available.
Keep an eye on this painting’s progress, as I’ll post photos along the way.
And so it starts...
Gene gains momentum quickly...
