While I was in Nice over the New Year the French media was buzzing about the imminent release of Joann Sfar's
biopic of Serge Gainsbourg. Through the
Gainsbourg: Le Film blog I discovered a project set up by Brit illustrator
Jonathan Edwards-
Draw Serge! inviting illustrators to contribute their images of Serge. Here are the roughs for the final above.
the film looks to be a doozy. years ago I was in Turkey on my jollies and i happened upon a market stall selling nothing but busts of our pal Serge... i didn't really know who he was back then, now i know I often wonder did i dream the event... well, there you are... nice colours here
ReplyDeleteCheers Mick-sounds like a nightmare, although a stall full of Bardot busts would be better!
ReplyDeleteThe nose on the top right rough sketch is perfect! Nice to see some colour too!
ReplyDeletethose deep red lips against the green is stunning. Cool sketch sheet below too!
ReplyDeleteLove this one, Matt!
ReplyDeleteLook forward to seeing you in London on 30th - tickets booked.
