Musical Moments
Street Corner Entertainment
Thursday, June 18, 2020
A entirely new range of subject matter for me. I had no idea how many photos that I have of musicians. Though I have virtually never painting them. I’ve enjoyed drawing them during symphony concerts, but have never tried to paint them on site. So it was a pleasure to discover how much bun it is to paint the intensity of this work as they play and all of the instruments and equipment that they bring along
On the streets of Seattle there is a sense of community like few other cities. They allo come with an immense of originality.
The paint above was photographed in Seattle. The first one in this series is from Alaska and the one below is from Paris. They were a bunch of musicians that were play jazz outside of Notre Dame. I suppose they were paying for their trip around Europe playing wonderful American Jazz! Just a lot of fun to see how much detain and interest that can be found in a couple of guys (guys and a gal) playing and selling their entertainment for the enjoyment of all. Kind of what I do when I paint plein aire.
