Elvis Presley

Daniel Baxter June 15, 2020

Just looking at pictures of a young Elvis Presley, it’s easy to understand why he found such meteoric success. This native of Tupelo, Mississippi exuded an aura which has yet to be duplicated. While drawing this legend, I found myself continuously mimicking his distinct southern drawl. He sadly lost his way in life, but his early contributions to rock and roll will reverberate forever. 

Signed prints of this piece are available here (in my Etsy Shop)!

A Tin Full of Tunes

Daniel Baxter May 9, 2019

Years ago, at a yard sale, I found a mysterious tin full of index cards (which I bought for $1.00). All that was typed on each card was a song title, and the name of a singer or band. The reason why these cards were made is unknown, but they sparked my imagination.  Here are a few drawings in which I utilized individual cards as canvases. More to come soon!
