Black Panther by Timothy Bradstreet

A Chadwick Boseman Black Panther piece by the incredible Timothy Bradstreet, I understand that it was a piece done for an upcoming artbook. Chadwick Boseman pulled off a truly iconic performance as T’Challa and I felt compelled to buy this beautiful piece when I heard the news of his passing (and Jack Kirby’s Birthday) as a tribute to his wonderful portrayal.

The detail on the piece is jaw dropping, Tim Bradstreet captures Chadwick Boseman’s likeness in his inimitable style. From a distance it looks almost photorealistic but upclose it gets abstract with a thousand dots and dashes that somehow coalesce to form this portrait.
