Uk Jazz-funk-soul
I call these images 'unstill lives'. Drawing people in movement, on a musical wave-length. They are the opposite of 'still life' painting, - (the painting of silent and 'still' bowls of fruit and flowers)... Compositions of dancers and venues made ‘live’ on location in jazz, soul and funk clubs in London, Uk and Beyond. 1990-2020. Fuelled by participation and observation. The images catch or court the spirit and atmosphere of the music and dance of each specific event.
Killer Jim's 'Out To Lunch'
Drawn live on location in Nottingham at DJ Killer Jim's Sunday afternoon Jazz-dance club in Nottingham in 2006. Re-worked in the studio, and completed in 20010. Charcoal and grey pastel on Canson Paper. 75cm x 55cm.
