I have a soft spot for street musicians. It used to be our tradition back in Vermont, to take banjos and fiddles down to the Grand Union parking lot and play for all the shoppers as they waltzed into and out of the store. We'd always make just enough to take ourselves to the movies, and sometimes even buy a tub of buttered popcorn as well!
This one was inspired by a group of enthusiastic street musicians I encountered on day down on the Santa Cruz Mall. Such youthful passion bubbled from their music! I had fun feeling into their energy with my paintbrush, painting on a canvas that I'd first covered with joint compound to give it interesting texture.
About a year ago now, something wonderful happened. I'd been going through an increasingly challenging time with my health, which has been a major teacher in my life, and was being brought to my knees by the experience. When my dear friend and partner Fred encouraged me to take up art, I was touched by an excitement that was like a thousand smiles singing inside me! I've always been an adventurous one,,, artistic, musical, and a great lover of spontaneous play. For much of my life, I've made my living as a luthier, specializing in unusual, made-up violin family instruments, as well as a whole host of flutes, harps, marimbas, tile-a-phones, etc. etc. But until last year, I'd never spent much time with a paintbrush, or let myself be...
