Masters of Swing
Series of drawings honoring four of the great Swing Jazz artists.
Description
I drew this series of portraits in preparation for Lindy Focus 2018 where I’ve sold art prints for the last several years as well as having taught dance for the last two. These are all musicians who have had a special connection with the event in some way, so paying tribute to them through visual art (in addition to their music) was a meaningful way for me to connect with the event.
