Like everybody else in the world, I want to claim ain't nobody as big of a Michael Jackson fan as me. The truth is the guy was just so amazing that we all were hardcore fans. Me and my girlfriend debate whether there will ever be another Michael Jackson...entertaining and can sing his ass off...being great at every stage of their career from kid to adult...while breaking all race divisions in music...a guy capable of making whole albums that can have every song turned into a single.
I don't think we'll see it in our lifetime, so we have to appreciate that we got to witness his magic while he was here. His legacy will live on....the music's just too good to deny. Little kids can pop out some Michael lyrics and dance moves for you right now, lol.
Yesterday I had a customer fly in from DC to get a tattoo dedicated to her love for music. At the same time it was a Michael Jackson dedication piece. She had the sheet music for "Man in the Mirror" (which was her favorite song), music symbols making the phrase "I love Music" and Michael on his toes from Moonwalker. She gave me free range so I threw my specialty of realism in the mix and added his eyes for the background. While we were doing it, she brought it to my attention that those were the eyes from "Man in the mirror". That was pretty cool cause I can't say I planned that. those eyes just had so much power.
I'm glad I was apart of this piece and can finally say I got to do a Michael tat which is something I've wanted to do for awhile.
You guys have a good day,
I got some tats to draw
