view larger!

please note, this painting is made entirely out of respect for the late actor. I painted this out of honour, I think this image is incredibly iconic and wanted to encapsulate that, despite his sad and untimely death, Heath Ledger will go on to become an icon and I hope you understand this image is entirely in good will.

not for sale cos of the copyright which I completely understand, merely here to say ‘look! isnt it cool?’

    beautifully done…i was so shocked and saddened when he passed…i was a very big heath fan right from “10 things I hate about you”...thanks for painting and posting this!

  • Artway replied

    Thank you, im glad that you, as a fan of his, enjoy this image :)

    awesome, i know i couldnt paint something like that..you did it well and im sure his family and friends would be proud to view something like this

  • Artway replied

    I think thats why I added the additional bit in the description, I would hate the idea of anyone thinking I was ‘cashing in’ on his death, in reality, I think its such a powerful image I would have painted it anyway, I think the imagery is marvellous, a pleasure to paint, so much so that it only took me half an hour to do!
