About The Artwork

A typical jazz funeral begins at a church or funeral home and leads the way to the cemetery. Mourners are joined by a brass band that plays music that starts off heavy and sad but soon turns celebratory. Everybody dances. In The Music of Black American, Eileen Southern describes the ceremony: “On the way to the cemetery it was customary to play very slowly and mournfully a dirge, or an old Negro spiritual such as 'Nearer My God to Thee,' but on the return from the cemetery, the band would strike up a rousing, 'When the Saints Go Marching In,' or a ragtime song such as 'Didn't He Ramble.' ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: from my fotografix series: They’re not photographs (although I start with one of my original photos), nor are they strictly graphics. They are a unique blend of both using digital techniques I perfected, including a lot of cropping the original to find the image lurking in the photograph.
