Sly & Arnold by Ernest “Jazzman” Resendes

Craig / / 2000, Celebs, Sly Fan

Ernest “Jazzman” Resendes has been toying with the idea of a painting of Sly and Arnold for a while. In the midst of all that he’s been doing (his regular 9 to 5, helping score a friend’s film, working on his own independent short, etc.) inspiration struck! Jazz has this to say about the work-in-progress:

Here is a sketch version of what might be one of the candidates for a Sly/Arnie painting. I’m sooo indecisive it’s insane.

With this piece I was trying for something expressive with some humor and a touch of YELLOW SUBMARINE influence added in ( hand with blade ). I’ve never consciously tried to conjure up influences but what the hey. It was sort of fun.

I wish this could be done before “GET CARTER” comes out but it won’t happen with my schedule. I am getting better with scheduling my time though. Maybe I can do a Sly face study painting soon.

BTW pretty soon I’ll be filming some exteriors for “BLACK CAPRICORN DAY” this fall. I’ll be strapping myself to the top of a UHAUL to film a high tracking shot of swurving car. So if I’m not on the SZ messageboard for awhile that’s because I’m in a body cast (lol) .

Peace , JAZZMAN

As always, Jazz‘ art impresses… and as always, Thanks to Jazz for sharing!  – Craig Zablo (September 23, 2000)

Sly Stallone is One “Driven” Guy

Craig / / 2000, Driven

In the StarPeople section of STAR: SLY STALLONE is one driven guy, all right! He plays a race car driver in his new flick “Driven” and he insists on doing all his own stunts, including driving at speeds over 190 miles per hour. Studio heads have their fingers crossed that the daredevil doesn’t break his neck while the film is being shot. Luckily, SLY has the good sense NOT to do his own crash scenes. He’s leaving those to a body double.”

“Diner to the Stars”

Craig / / 2000, Celebs

US Weekly has a tidbit called “Diner to the Stars” in the Hot Stuff section. The piece is accompanied by very small pics of SLY, MEL GIBSON, DARYL HANNAH and LEONARDO DICAPRIO. Apparently the above named celebs have all been seen eating at a diner called Roni’s on Santa Monica Blvd. in Beverly Hills.
