Live drawing of JJ by artist Anthony Lister

Earlier this month, Kaleo was in Sydney for the Australia/New Zealand leg of their 2023 tour. Local superstar artist ANTHONY LISTER happened to be in the studio with JJ and did a live drawing while he strummed away on his guitar. We were lucky enough to get a closer view of Anthony's live drawing, using a 2B lead pencil -- including a look at the completed pieces!

Drawn with 2B lead pencil in April 2023 at a studio visit during the @officialkaleo tour in Sydney, Australia. We want to give the most ENORMOUS fist pump and a huge thank you to the incredible artist that is Anthony Lister. He graciously shared this video -- and also all of the finished drawings! -- to share with all of us in the Kaleo fandom.

From his bio:  Anthony Lister combines a dialogue of traditional technique from old masters with the free-hand, open minded spontaneous signature style he pioneered through his street art hometown roots. The results are dark undertones that cloud the artist's luscious characters, constructed from a harmony of daring brush strokes and a bold color palette. Loaded with nearly uncontrollable energy Lister brings his ominous figures to life within each composition. He is regularly referred to as "Australia's best contemporary artist".
