Description
The incredibly great James Bama created magnificent monochrome paintings for Bantam and other paperback publishers in the 60s and 70s. The best known of these are the 60 or so DOC SAVAGE covers but my personal favorite were THE HARRAD EXPERIMENT and TOMBOY covers.
The image above was part of a 2006 photo session. I knocked it down to BW, then added a yellow tint and started manipulating from there. The result approximates a goal I have for a couple of my summer oil painting projects, namely emulating the aforementioned James Bama. Check back in a couple months to see how well that goes......
