Some artist is painting pictures of indie singers, and Ezra Koenig is probably the most famous person he has painted, so seems like this is a 'relevant' thing 2 post. Like many entry-level alt tween girls, I usually do a google search 4 Ezra every day and think abt what it will be like when I finally get to d8 him, and he takes me on tour and eventually makes me the 5th member of Vampy Weeks [via the indie Yoko Ono].

But until then... I guess all I can really keep doing is making my creepy fan art and mailing it 2 his parents' house (along with cutting off my hair, skin, fingernails and miscellanous extremities).

Artist Joe Simpson is working on a series of detailed paintings of his favorite musicians' faces. So far, he has completed portraits of indie royalty like Vampire Weekend's Ezra Koenig (above), the National's Matt Berninger, Iron & Wine's Sam Beam, and more. Each of the paintings is 60 centimeters by 60 centimeters, in oil on canvas. To create the paintings, Simpson meets the artist and takes photos. He'll display all the portraits in a solo exhibition later this year.

Who the hell is Joe Simpson? Isn't that the father of Jessica and Ashlee Simpson?
