Pat Boyle
Before and After

I once saw him play this ten-inch mouth piano from hell-type thingy. And it's a mighty charmin' sounding ten-inch mouth piano from hell-type thingy.

With the rings on his fingers and the bells on his toes (literally) Pat Boyle reads more like a page out of Albert Mooney's from hell-type fantasies than a rock star. But with his masters degree in ethnomusicology and scads of awards (and at such a young age), Pat Boyle is, no doubt, an over achiever, and one of this town's most accomplished musicians. He plays in half the bands in St. John's, well at least four anyway: The Discounts, Trimmed Naval Beef, Jenny Gear and the Whiskey Kittens, Mark Bragg and the Black Wedding Band. Everybody wants a piece of his talent. I'm sure he plays in some other jazz ensemble-type thingies too. And I'm sure they're mighty fine jazz ensemble-type thingies.

In short, this boy really gets around. He's really got a charmin' rock slut type-thingie goin' on. And great hair! Everybody wants a piece of you, you "mighty musical slut" you.

This is undoubtedly one of the best bead portraits I've ever done.

Check out the shadow. Each variegated string of red-into-orange-into-yellow beads form a perfect gradient from one skin shade into the next.
