jazz and art – timing of MJF and the timeliness of music and art
This isn’t really my genre – in that I’ve only done four digital paintings which show elements of instruments, playing, and the energy of jazz.
I feel qualified to paint on such a subject – I love to improvise – musically as well as artistically.
Improvising is the stuff of creativity – it is the heart of being a creative being. We use it when we converse, when we write, when we communicate in any fashion – because how else would we convey the world which is uniquely our own perspective.
So the article I saw today – pointed out the Monterey Jazz Festival starts tomorrow. Whether I end up catching any of it or not – (yes I too can let life get in the way) it is a pretty exciting event – with a huge range of performers and music over three days.
