Re: My gramophone painting
Oh my...it's a frankenphone! Somebodys put an EMG horn on a HMV lol.
I quite like it actually. I like your use of colour for the sound coming from the horn especially.
And the best part is it's not yet another lame craigslist/ebay ad thread whining about price, condition or spelling
Well done.

Haha Shane, when I sat down to draw it (from memory) a frankenphone was the only thing I could think of!

Re: My gramophone painting
If you were to have said that it was a photo of a painting from thus and so museum, I'd have believed it. That's the very sort of impressionist style representation I'd expect to see in a contemporary painting. I see it more as a tribute to the jazz greats than as a painting of a gramophone.
It's certainly as good/creative as any of these:

Done, played, overcooked.
The paintings are lovely, all four of them posted as of this time.

First thought was Edvard Munch

Not bad
