My next collection of drawings are to commorate Michael Jackson's history in music videos. (not in any particular order) There is no doubt that he has brought originality to the medium that no-one else can immitate yet use him as in inspiration.

Here we have "Smooth Criminal", a song about the murder of a "Annie" and the detective work thats involved in finding out 'who dunnit'.

The music video shows Michael dressed in pinstripe and fedora :drool: entering a 1930s styled club, where the women swoon for him and the men are jealous of him. It has some of the most influencial dance scenes ever seen in music videos to date. Including the "anti gravity lean" (do YOU know how its done? Becuase I sure do :giggle: )

Created in pencil crayons and chalks. Text and signature added in Ulead.

Lyrics copyright to Michael Jackson.

;) I'm glad someone noticed I asked a question on my comment there...
There's actually a website with the mechanics of how "the lean" is done hehe.
Thanks for your kind words!
