People draw celebrities all the time, but only Amanda Grazini draws them in a style that would not be out of place on your Saturday morning cartoons.
Amanda Grazini's art is colored in a manner that evokes crayons or colored pencil drawings from preschool. Her style is highly toonish, but her technical proficiency bleeds through with her ability to capture the likeness and attitude of each musician she's drawing. She's also gifted in placing her subjects in dynamic poses that really encapsulate their energy. Among the famous musicians Grazini has drawn are the Beatles, Smashing Pumpkins, Lady Gaga, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Michael Jackson, and even Sex Bob Omb from the movie Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World.
If these celebrity musician drawings are any indication, Amanda Grazini isn't only an upcoming artist to watch out for, she's also got badass musical taste.
