Jon Hiseman


This was a real trip down memory lane. Tasked with an exercise in portrait painting, my chosen subject was the near-legendary drummer from Colosseum. Their music was a major influence on me in the late 1960's. They reformed in 1994 and were touring as recently as 2010.

This sketch was completed in acrylic in around 2 hours. It measures approx 10" by 12", and was painted with Atelier Interactive acrylics on Bockingford paper. Not sure his mother would recognise him, but it was fun to do.
