Keith Richards The Human Riff by Sebastian Kruger


When you look Kruger's works of art in person, even the most casual observer senses that there is something happening that goes far beyond fantastic painting. Much more than perfect articulations of the most subtlest of details. There is a feeling that is difficult to name but easy to feel, that can only come from an artist breathing-through his brush life onto the canvas. And this can only come from an artist such as Kruger who is living his life fully in his art.

Sebastian has perfectly addressed this very thing in his most recent work and now print of Keith Richards entitled The Human Riff.

Follow this link to read the full Story of Sebastian Kruger's latest print release of Keith Richards The Human Riff.
