Artist's Comments

Oh my.... HOW much fun have I had making this.

I am back at work tomorrow, so I thought I should use my time well to make a new vexel... I haven't been making them as much recently so it was time to do a _really_ good one and put a lot into it... about 8 hours straight later... that's right, no breaks :O... I have done this. Hyper on gum balls full of e numbers... I will be bouncing off the walls I tell you.

It's Billie Joe Armstrong, the vocalist for the ever so amazing Green Day. I had the pleasure of seeing them on their American Idiot tour in Newcastle on February and I have to say, they are the best band I have seen live... sod me going to Live8 - that was nothing compared to Green Day.

Not much else to say... made in Paintshop Pro 7.04 - well over 200 layers (too much merging to get the exact number) and it's a vexel which is a vector style portrait but on raster layers.

I hope you guys like it :D
