This painting is a tribute to Michael, blending elements from his “Dangerous” and “Thriller” albums, my two favorite albums of his. I wanted to capture the essence of both eras: the iconic look of „Thriller“ , combined with the „Dangerous“ cover art by Mark Ryden in the background. I think it’s one of the best covers ever made and I can’t imagen how long it took him to create it.

The painting is made with oil and measures 1x1m. It took me over 100 hours to complete this piece, as I wanted to pay homage to Michael Jackson’s legacy and the music that I love and has inspired me deeply. He brought magic, energy, and artistry to millions, and I wanted this painting to reflect that spirit. My goal was to create something that not only honors his influence but also captures the timeless impact he left on the world.
