RON CARTER Painting

Jazz People Series: This series follows the chords and syncopations of jazz and old blues music. The main concept of these paintings is to express jazz music through color, plastic lines and forms, stylization and transformation of images of famous musicians, creators of the magic of jazz improvisation. Yes, sometimes tired and sad faces and hands of great creators, dissolving in cigarette smoke and the sounds of music, to which they gave their lives and thoughts and soul, and became music, dissolving in it. In portraits of musicians I transform faces, hands and musical instruments in a single plastic language, uniting and figuratively highlighting what gives rise to music, which becomes an independent rhythmic essence of the whole image.
