Beethoven's Inked Symphony

Original acrylic painting on wood of the prolific Beethoven. As with much of LEX Covato's art this portrait portrays Beethoven with tattoos. The tattoos act as visual cliff notes describing his life and accomplishments. This body of Tattooed Icons combines Pop culture, Religious Iconography, and Tattoo culture. The painting style is both expressive and classic. Layering of washes and glazing are employed to create this illustrative image. To purchase original email the artist. Prints are also available through the artist's website.
