The Marriage of Art and Photography: Introducing the Side by Side Series

12 years ago, I married the man of my dreams. Barry Sigman.  We have walked an amazing path together and it's far from over!  I am so excited to introduce his work here on my page and even more excited to collaborate with him on our latest project: Side by Side.  Side by Side is a series featuring the marriage of his photography and my art.  I have chosen some of my favorite photos of his and turned them into art.  Then, feature our works together, side by side.  Isn't it romantic?  I think!

 Barry is an accomplished concert photographer and is well known throughout the music world among artists such as Willie Nelson, Foreigner, the Marshall Tucker Band and many others. In addition, he has done album covers for artists such as Jim Messina, American Idol winner Sundance Head and many others.  His list of accolades is so vast, it would fill up this page and wouldn't leave enough room for the pictures.  So, without further ado, here is the first in our series featuring Steven Tyler.

He's Just A Sweet Primadonna

Most Struts fans agree that Luke Spiller could comfortably fill the platform shoes of Dr. Frank N Furter for a Rocky Horror remake. His classic pretty yet, masculine features, bone chillingly delicious vocals and clipped Brittish accent make him a prime choice for the cult classic role. I painted this with loving care and tender regard for details using several prototypes including a frontal facial photo taken by renowned concert photographer, Barry Sigman (my adorable husband) So the question on everyone's mind is, if you were offered the role of Frank N, would you take it, Luke? Just remember, if you don't, you'll be wrrrlllllapped in your regret!

Peyton's Kiss

Image
Out of all the paintings I've ever done, Peyton's Kiss has the most endearing story of all. Although I usually cringe at doing commissioned paintings, my long-time friend, Steve Adams, asked me to paint this picture of his friend Ashley's daughter, Peyton as a birthday gift.  I thought....sheesh...a baby kissing a mirror?? How the hell am I going to do this one? It seemed like a daunting task but I went to work and finished it in less than a week, mailing it off in time for Ashley'sbirthday party.. I was so touched when Steve sent me a video of her opening her present. Here was lady whom I'd never met and yet, I got to touch her life through my artwork.   God has blessed me with this talent and I never take it for granted. So here's Peyton.

Caylee Anthony: Always and Forever

Image
This is one of the most bittersweet drawings I've ever done. On July 5th, 2011, when the jury reached a verdict for Casey Anthony, a part of all of us, died that day. She was found innocent for the death of her daughter, Caylee. I have always felt a sense of frustration over this case. That's what inspired me to make this rendering of Caylee. It gave me a new mission and purpose.  Rather than helplessly fret over senseless murders like this, I plan to draw other victims and place them in a Gallery in which 100% of the proceeds will go to the victim's families. As for Caylee, she rests in the arms of Jesus. And for her mother, Casey: you may be free here on earth but the devil is preparing a special jail cell for you in the next life. Repent and confess.
