Hold me, like the river Jordan


I spent most of yesterday watching MTV's marathon of Michael Jackson's videos through the years. I like drawing from the TV so I did these doodles of him as I watched him dance...man can he move. The Olivares family are big MJ fans, My mom raised us on MJ. I think we must have his every TV appearance archived in our VHS collection. I have a Michael Jackson playlist that I listened to a ton this year when I was working on my film and wanted to get into the groove. There's no one like Michael. His music is untouchable. He was such a innovative, inspiring, and passionate artist.
