He was born in September 1946 in Zanzibar. His real name was Farookh Bulsara. In 1973 he and his band Queen released their first album in UK and that's how the story begun. They quickly become one of the most famous bands on this planet.
Freddie died on 24th November 1991. It's been 14 years now and I still remember seeing the news on TV. It makes me feel strange... like when you admire someone and you just can't understand why such great person must leave the world untimely. I have a "Queen evening" today. I'm listening to their music, I've watched some videos. And finally I finished this picture.
"I want to break free" is one of my many favourites songs/videos of Queen and this picture is my tribute to Freddie (who doesn't love that scene in drag? ) Handdrawn lineart (+ some pencil shadowing), colored in Photoshop & Painter with mouse. The style refers to Alphonse Mucha.
I caught this on the main page. I knew it was your work right away. Who better than you to capture Freddy?
I'm pretty sure he was my first celebrity crush. I grew up listening to Queen. I love their music and the sound of his voice. I was 10 years old the year he died. I remember crying so hard when I saw it on the news. My dad gave me a hug and put on one of his favorite Queen records (yeah, my dad's a traditionalist... if he could listen to nothing but records he would).
What I love most about this piece is his teeth. I see his two front teeth and I can't help but smile. This has got so much life and personality, it's a colorful, quirky image. Absolutely fitting. I can almost hear him singing that song.
Beautiful work! As always.

Queen was the first band i ever truley fell in love with and Freddy has been a hero of mine for as long as i can remember. This is an amazing portrait of one of the greatest men to have ever lived.
