Description
Portrait of Canadian icon Leonard Cohen wearing his customary Trilby hat which he often wore while performing. Leonard Cohen was a singer, songwriter, poet and novelist. He also played guitar and piano. Born in 1935, passed in 2016. His work explored religion, politics, isolation, depression, sexuality, loss, death and romantic relationships. I have done his portrait partially as scratch board art and partially with digital paint, in tones of dark brown, black and white.
Day 52 - "Leonard Cohen - Canadian Icon" is my submission on day 52 of Fine Art America's 100 Day Challenge to create a work a day.

Terrific portrait! No question as to who it is, feels like a woodcut, that gravel and wood feel of a unique voice.
