"Gris Gris Gumbo Ya Ya" Painting

All my art is influenced by Jazz and Blues Music, I call the work "Composing With Color" Every one hears music differently. The way we perceive it is shaped by our tastes, emotions, situations and personalities. I have attempted to have music take on physical colors as it traveled through air. My canvas is the manuscript which the notes are painted. My ideal vision is to create a world in colors as Thelonious Monk created in a world in sound.
