Acrylic paint on board. Original size 360mm x 610mm.

I decided to take the New York Punk Spike of 1977 and bring him forward a couple of years. This is mid-80s Spike in all his leather-clad glory. :D

I know I'm gonna be sorry for admitting this, but I have NO idea who spike is. So did CantonHeroine nail his likeness? You tell me. But does it even matter? One can get lost in the labyrinth of detailing. And that leather is like a dark body of swirling waters with an occasional stray color touching the surface. Whoever spike happens to be, I'm sure he couldn't be anything but pleased. Rock Star Spike by ~CantonHeroine (Featured by `dholms)

The beginning of love is to let those we love
be perfectly themselves, and not to twist them
to fit our own image. Otherwise we love only
the reflection of ourselves we find in them.
