The work of Dan Dunn, as featured on his website Paintjam.com, is simply amazing.
In a theatrical performance, (as featured in the above video) to a song by Ray Charles, he produces a seemingly effortless likeness of the musician on a giant rotating canvas.
He is not a one-trick pony either. Dunn's other featured "paintjams" works include Elvis Presley, to the tune of "Rubberneckin'", and a NASA Astronaut to the tune of "Rocketman".
Definitely a must see!
