Original, hand-made, limited-edition prints of Snoop Dogg.
 
This piece is part of a series called the Chroma Chronicles, as you may be able to tell from the name, it was a colourful endeavour developed to celebrate the classic 90’s hip hop icons.
 
Every artwork starts with a foundation of watercolour, ink pens, and spray paint to set the mood. From there, I let the music guide me. While I work, their tracks play on repeat, finding their way into the composition as symbols, hidden words, and visual nods woven throughout the page.
 
In this piece there are references to his music, career and history. The more obvious symbol of his song “Gin and Juice” is portrayed as a nice cocktail down at the bottom. There is also a Bored Ape Yacht Club character near the top, of which Snoop was an early adopter in the NFT space. There is also depictions of Long Beach, where Snoop was born.
 
The finer details are refined using digital painting techniques, weaving narratives embedded in his hip hop persona, infusing the exaggerated style of comic-book characters, with the raw etchings and candy colours of street art. The end result is a loose chroma wash, balanced carefully with words and imagery behind the figure, creating a vibrant, harmonious piece  ready for your home.
