AIR YEEZY 2 "PURE PLATINUM"

INNER jjj DIALOGUE

The Red October was, and is, my favorite Yeezy of all time (to no surprise, not a very unique take) but the Pure Platinum is my second favorite. I painted this one because I wanted to take on the challenge of the snake skin. Originally, I had the plan to hand stitch the texture, which I did, unsuccessfully. It ended up being the most obvious element on the canvas, when really it should be a second read. So, I took some time to sketch out the execution and decided that it would be a palette knife and ink pen approach. I love the idea of showing the actual process of the painting on the painting itself, so I stitched on part of the paint palette that I used on the upper right corner. This is something I did with the very first sneaker I painted, the Converse, but I didn’t attach it properly so naturally with time it got lost.
