The King of the Blues - Farewell

I am a big fan of B.B. King, since I was 10 years old. My father used to listen to his music, and to tell me how great he is. I guess I just grew up and understood just what he meant. I really thought the he would live forever, because he was an icon for over 60 years, and icons never die…
The minute that I heard about his death, I decided to paint a portrait, to pay my tribute and to say thank you for all those great years.
Here is the portrait, it was rather quick, but I still like it very much.


And here is one of my favorite songs, I really like this version (with Eric Clapton).
