Description Today marks the 100th anniversary of the great blues guitarist Robert Johnson's birth. So the legend goes that when Johnson was young he met the devil at a crossroads and he sold his soul in return for his musical talent. Here's a painting I did to commemorate the date.

How wonderful! Beautifully rendered face. The scratches remind me of the pops and clicks on old vinyls and tv shows. Cheers! from a new fan. You put me to shame.
