Miles and Trane Painting

This piece is inspired by two of the greatest musicians of all time and particularly their epic collaborations from the late '50s and early '60s; Miles Davis and John Coltrane. Individually they were both incredibly innovative and talented, but together they became truly inspirational. The way Trane’s sax endlessly winds its’ way through a beautifully composed melody while Miles’ trumpet dances in and out complimenting and highlighting the sax yet remaining individually brilliant. Each trumpet solo cleaner and more emotional than the last. I find that my art is often influenced and inspired by the music I’m listening to at the time… or is the music I decide to listen to inspired by the art coming out of my head? Both maybe? I began my "outsider artist" journey painting on the backs of obsolete Habitat for Humanity signs. When I had gone through all could find I turned to other hand lettered, ad hoc plywood signs like the kind one might find advertising yard sales or in concert venue parking lots. I flip them over and use the open wood panel to create art, including Miles and Trane. In this case you will be able to see a sales pitch “$5 Each/3 for $10” sign on the other side. My entire series of 2 foot x 2 foot verso homemade sign artwork are all on clean plywood and weigh ~3.5 lbs and they all will need to be hung in a frame.
