Wonderful drawing! Love the tone from the horn. To paint metal is pretty hard. Very well done!

...and which ends in acrylic... What a metaphoric chromesthesia and what a brushstroke !

Yes, the horn is bent but it's formidable. It looks like it could be a French horn, from your photograph; or maybe some kind of baritone horn---I can't tell. But what's important is the vitality of your palette knife and brushwork, and your hues. The horn is filled with yellows, and they're set-off by your blacks. And the rush of your palette knife gives it a vital 'pulsing' feeling. Your skin tones are fine contrast, Jock, and that big pink area in the background is a great backdrop to this musician---I love it! I see the pink in the photo, but you've intensified it greatly. And you contrasted that with your deep black and that beautiful gentle blue on the other side of it. (That background could make an abstract all by itself: There were painters who did nothing but squares like that.) And you have patches of deep reds behind the horn---more fine contrast. Tara told me that your paintings were even MORE exciting, vivid and eye-popping in person: I was salivating, lol. I think if I saw a whole roomful of your paintings, I'd need a week's vacation just to come back to "normal life" afterwards...Another vital and exciting musician-painting from you; and your pov---from the photo---is, as always, most unusual and intense: It makes us focus on the musician through his or her instrument, rather than through the musician themselves. That's most unusual, and you continue to be one of the best painters I know of musicians. Beautiful.
