Lynyrd Skynyrd Drawing Sketch

Posted by: Susie // Category: Pencil Sketches

Origanally they called themselves “My Backyard”, well, my backyard is full of snow at the moment, leaving me to my studio and an group that became an Icon in Rock.

Lynyrd Skynyrd Street Survivor Pencil Sketch Only being inducted into the Hall of Fame in March of 2006, Skynyrd’s Southern Rock has hauled ass into many of our headphone’s and out of many 8 track decks during the 1970’s.

The crash that claimed the famed band members Ronnie Van Zant, Steve Gaines and backup singer Cassie Gaines, will remain a tragic memory in the original band’s history, on February 5th, 2008 - the 30th Anniversary - Street Survivors Two CD Deluxe Set was released. With previously unrealeased Album Mix and the bands final recordings. The legendary sound of Lynryd Skynyrd will continue to live on in music history.

I was asked to do a sketch of the original album cover - for a gift. MCA Records removed the flames on engulfed the band members on the original album sleeve, and replaced the band on a solid black background.

This sketch is half done, and I have used Woodless Graphite - Soft Pencil and I will incorporate a slight bit of color in the flames to represent the original idea behind it. For a dedicated and loyal fan.
