Being Famous is like Ike 2017

"Being Famous is like Ike" is a 2017 painting by David Michael Hinnebusch, a vibrant and abstract portrait. The artwork utilizes bold strokes of color, including red, pink, blue, and yellow, to depict a stylized face. Hinnebusch’s signature style, characterized by a layering of paint and text, is evident in this piece. The abstract nature of the portrait, combined with the writing in the composition, creates a sense of energy and intrigue. The title, a thought-provoking reference to the life of Ike Turner, adds another layer to this dynamic work.
