Painting - Acrylic On Canvas
Description
Saxophonist Milton Lewis took an amazing photograph of his friend and fellow musician, David Juaricki, at the Umbria Jazz Festival in Italy, and I asked for his permission to paint from it.
David was an incredible guitarist and vocalist, whose music touched any listener�s soul. He died much too early, and the world is sadder for it.
I wanted to work in a long, thin format, and painted it on a roofing slate. When his widow saw it, I gave it to her, and she commissioned another. Then I found a canvas in the dimensions I thought appropriate, and painted it in intense colors with acrylics. As I painted him, I was flooded with memories of David, his beautiful voice, his uncanny musical ability, and subtle (but hilarious) sense of humor/
