The song was about Maxine  Feibelman, a dancer on John's tour who later married Taupin.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This was  incredible fun for me to do.  I called Maxine, and asked her if I could  draw her for a show I was doing.  I took the photographs I wanted to  work from to create the feeling of the lyrics in "Tiny Dancer in my  hand". The song has always been one of my favorite songs, but getting to  bring it to life for me is something I won’t forget. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maxine has great  skin, which was a treat to draw and as the lyrics go pretty  eyed...pirate's smile. Maxine is one of the most beautiful people I know  full of life and down to earth!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Elton John's World website found the  piece online and requested an interview on the work and on doing it. The  piece was later shown at Universal Studio's City Walk at the Hard Rock  Cafe in Studio City and Broadner's Pub. Prints can be purchased through  my site of this work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.eltonjohnworld.com/coranto/news/2008/February/TinyDancer.html"&gt;http://www.eltonjohnworld.com/coranto/n  … ancer.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prints can be ordered @ &lt;a href="http://keithalan.imagekind.com/"&gt;http://Keithalan.imagekind.com/&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&amp;amp; t-shirts @ &lt;a href="http://www.zazzle.com/keithmcdowell"&gt;www.zazzle.com/keithmcdowell&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4991807941670464329-3695950124927750331?l=keithmcdowellartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://keithmcdowellartist.blogspot.com/feeds/3695950124927750331/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://keithmcdowellartist.blogspot.com/2010/01/tiny-dancer.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4991807941670464329/posts/default/3695950124927750331'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4991807941670464329/posts/default/3695950124927750331'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://keithmcdowellartist.blogspot.com/2010/01/tiny-dancer.html' title='Tiny Dancer'/><author><name>Keith McDowell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08271907734517125807</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='28' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-lJMqblRNZY/S1v3k_rb6qI/AAAAAAAAADY/ktJ72tLewCI/S220/Pic+ICON.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-lJMqblRNZY/S1tCNkC0jJI/AAAAAAAAADQ/W5KqY10W_Dk/s72-c/maxine.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4991807941670464329.post-7385892795700703559</id><published>2010-01-19T11:47:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-01-19T13:04:31.911-08:00</updated><title type='text'>The Wonderful World of Internet!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-lJMqblRNZY/S1YW9tS5g-I/AAAAAAAAAC4/GhsaqbjliWI/s1600-h/paula+michele.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5428551650228405218" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 101px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 286px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-lJMqblRNZY/S1YW9tS5g-I/AAAAAAAAAC4/GhsaqbjliWI/s320/paula+michele.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; How's this for retro week?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What a pleasant surprise to go online to my email and FB page and see notes from the past. Paula Garfield Raridon sent me an email, for all you out there who have listened to the story that I tell of her walking to school and being attached by a squirrel jumping from a tree and biting her, this is Paula. It was so great to hear from her! Paula shared a sketch I did of Leslie Uggums from way back for her.

So I wanted to share the pencil sketch with you so you can take the trip back in time with me. Buckle up!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then the next day I got a note from another childhood friend Michelle Hammel Wags.

Ben and I Moved back to LA. Then started working on a portrait with pop singer Aaron Carter while he was on &lt;em&gt;Dancing with the Stars&lt;/em&gt;. He was great to work with and it was a trip to do. Great guy! Then started a new series for a book I'm doing on colored pencil technique. Leading that new series was celebrity photographer Mike Ruiz (www.Mike Ruiz.com) he said "Yes" &lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-lJMqblRNZY/Sz0Ng_8YAdI/AAAAAAAAACQ/hsS2mIIjJKY/s1600-h/mardik.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5421504386995585490" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 222px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-lJMqblRNZY/Sz0Ng_8YAdI/AAAAAAAAACQ/hsS2mIIjJKY/s320/mardik.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;without hesitation and took one of his beautiful photographs in the pose I wanted to do for this series. I'm having a blast with it. Thanks Mike! Then we rounded the year off being asked to produce a film and TV show. Ben's Art Center Education Will be well used now! Yikes. Learning curves are now steep grades. lol. I went to my dear friend Mardik Martin (Raging Bull, Means Streets, New York, New York, Valentino) and asked him to write it, he said "Yes". Full year! Can't wait to see what 2010 will bring our way!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hope you have a great year too!!
