In honor of Snoop Doggy Dogg's birthday today, I present a stunning portrait painted by Alex Melamid now showing at The Forum Gallery in L.A. This current show features paintings of various hip-hop stars (50 Cent, Kanye West, Russell Simmons, Lil Jon, Reverend Run, etc.) done in the old masters style.
I can't wait until the show comes to New York (January, I think).
In order to somehow incorporate a shameless plug for myself into this thread, I'm also posting a photo of one of my traditional pet portraits of...Pony Doggy Dogg!
Editors Note: I just realized that Snoop's birthday is actually tomorrow...sorry, Snoop!
POny! So alluring, so cuddly, so dangerous!!
