The incredible ability to portray characters

Brandon Boyd may be primarily known as the lead singer for a successful US rock band called Incubus, but this musician has also proven that he possesses a bit more talent in his arsenal than one may expect. He is also a painter and a draughtsman with an incredible ability to portray characters that are all but ready to spring right from the page. His artistic vocabulary is based somewhere between subtle abstraction and figuration, a true compromise of magical and understandable. Technically, Boyd demonstrates controlled lines and fine touches of color, showing great confidence in his work. Interestingly, the author himself explains that his drawings mostly create themselves, carelessly leaving the pen as Brandon simply enables them to leave their vessel.
The real objective of Brandon Boyd painting, he said, is “to let go into the process, and if something beautiful comes of it, that’s an amazing reward — like you’ve been given a gem from your expedition, but the search for the gem is not necessarily the point.” Inside the circular structure, which is supported by lattice walls and wood rafters, jars of green and earth-toned acrylic paint surround a 45-by-20-inch canvas, spread across the hardwood floor. “The amount of space afforded to me in this room has changed the way I paint, because it’s given me the chance to roll out unstretched canvases on the floor, sometimes in very large ways,” he said, applying wave-like strokes of white acrylic pen to the base color.
