Practice - Limited Edition of 3 Print

I’ve always wanted to paint and photograph musicians. It might be because I have always wanted to be one of them. When I see musicians on stage I can’t stop thinking about how they feel and how they connect with the crowd. I want to feel their energy and I want to see what they see through their eyes. For the past few years I’ve been painting, photographing, and documenting musicians. One of them is Joseph E-Shine (Yossi Mizrahi). When I saw Joseph on stage I knew I wanted to take it further with him and dig in deeply by documenting his inspirations, his day to day life, and really capture him in his element. Thats how my concept of "Day in a life of an artist" was born. The morning after his is live concert in Hollywood with his wife Ninet, I decided to go to his home. As he awoke I started capturing photos of him throughout the morning and even into the day. I decided I was going to do it differently this time and capture a musician after they stepped on stage. I was aiming for a very vintage style like famous musicians from the 60's. To achieve that vintage feel I used a vintage pentax 35m from the 50's. The Art show included a mixed media of film, photography, and sharpie sketches on a framed mat-board.
