Artist's Comments

MUSE
OH MY GOSH, IT'S FINALLY FINISHED. :B

Matthew Bellamy portrait: [link]

This definitely could have been improved in millions of ways, but I had to just stop. And it took forever trying to find the perfect reference of all three - this was definitely my favorite.

So here they are. All three of the band members.
When asked by some poor unsuspecting fool, "What is Muse?", I prefer to give them a discourse about "a group of three eccentric and brilliant geniuses" etc. Until they finally say, "So it's a band right?"

Why I love Muse . . . I'm not going into all that. But they are honestly the most amazing, talented, cool, funny, endearing, unique group of people I have ever admired. I love how weird they truly are. :D

From left to right:

:bulletblack: Dominic Howard: Drummer. I fixed his face since the last WIP and I am actually pretty happy with it though my sister told me he was the weakest in the drawing. I would definitely give that title to Chris, but whatever.
:bulletblack: Matthew Bellamy: Singer, guitarist, pianist, main composer, lyricist, genius. One of the most talented people ever. Floccinaucinihilipilification. And all hail his hair, for it is epic.
:bulletblack: Chris Wolstenholme: Amazing basist. And I wish I could have done him justice, but I was just too ready to give up and that's all I got.

I truly do apologize for the extreme amount of fangirl-ness in this description.
I just had to get a major tribute out of my system. I hope to do another few portraits of Matt in the future. But next I'm finishing a lovely referenced portrait of Angelina Jolie and one of Christian Bale. And then I seriously need to experiment with painting and other mediums for my college art supplement.

AND thank you to anyone who actually reads my essay-like descriptions.

PS: Can't wait for The Resistance! :dance: And of course the concert I will be attending where they open for U2.

Well done :)

I feel like they're looking through the screen at me...
Dominic is kinda like "eh, okay..."
Matthew is trying to do some kind of Jedi mind trick on me that will allow him to gaze into my soul.
and Chris is almost kinda surprised, because he thought I'd be taller in person. But I'm so hot, he can't look away.

All in all, I have to say that this has bunches of personality *thumbs up*

But I just have one question, and please forgive me for coming across as some poor unsuspecting fool, but...
What is Muse?

Haha, thank you! :) I really appreciate it!
And Muse is *ahem* one of the most astonishing and visionary groups of three geniuses of this time and of all history. Their careers will flourish because of not only their brilliance in creating compelling, memorable melodies but also because of the strong messages, which vary from dealing with politics to romance to much more . . .
And I'll stop now, but you asked for it. Good thing we're not having this conversation in person. And good night. :D

oh oh OH!
I'm sorry, but this is amazing.
You not only captured what they look like, but SOMEHOW (maybe through the eyes, the stance?) you captured their personalities somewhat too.
I love it :)

And don't apologize for your description being fangirl-esque. Fark, I love them just as much as I'm sure 50% of the worlds population does. Maybe not that much but thats how much it SHOULD be. And this...

"Floccinaucinihilipilification. And all hail his hair, for it is epic"

Hit it right on the head :P

Good work!

Don't be afraid. I will take the blow for you.
- Matt, Muse. Epic.
