Portrait of a 20th Century Poet

Blu Lou is portrait of New York's favorite son - Lou Reed. This piece done in an expressionist style pays homage to a true rock and roll poet who has inspired me in many different ways. His words articulate, resonate and even denigrate in the most clever and insightful way. His musical arrangements are as raw and soulful as his lyrics are profound. Click for Prints & Giclees
