The Doors: Signed (Copyright, Kristina Applegate Lutes Illustration)
A note from the Artist: (please view slideshow below)
“On March November 6 I was invited to attend The Doors Concert in Ridgefield, CT, by Erik Abrahamson, a very dedicated supporter of musicians, who is impressively attending concerts monthly by supporting popular artists from the 70′s, 80′s and 90′s. I was able to meet Robby and cover for Jim Morrison Dave Brock. Ray Manzarek during this show stopped and asked me to show the audience the painting. When I did I received a standing applause to a full house! This painting was signed by Ray and Robby at the end of the concert.
I am currently building on a portfolio of musicians who are primarily 50+ with the exception of a few. My goal is to memorialize them with my paintings, while they are still performing. I am always impressed at each concert I attend how incredibly strong they still are today! I would say in most cases outstanding!”
