“I searched through rebellion, drugs, diet, mysticism,
religion, intellectualism, and much more, only to find that truth is
basically simple and feels good, clear and right.”
– Armando “Chick” Corea
Another Sneak Peek at Underpainting
Sorry this is so blurry. It does give a little glimpse into how I
add color. I have to remember where color moves from one canvas to the
next. Each canvas has it’s own composition, but all three together are
really FUN!
I was kinda hoping it would rain all weekend, so I could paint, but I
imagine the boat will get it’s 2012 maiden cruise. The last two
summers were so hot that we barely used it. Since we have 80′s in
March, it may be that way again this summer. But, while we are hanging
out on the lake, soaking up rays, I’ll be writing my artist bio. I have
to do it for the gallery and I’m not very good at talking about
myself. Wish me luck!
About Armando “Chick” Corea
Armando “Chick” Corea, the American jazz pianist best known for his
composition “Spain,” epitomizes experimentation in jazz, incorporating
sounds from classical, rock, and flamenco traditions. He was born in
1941 in Massachusetts. Son of a jazz trumpeter, he began playing piano
at age four. He dropped out of Julliard to learn by doing. He played on
the seminal Miles Davis Bitches Brew recording, and formed his own jazz fusion group in the early 1970′s. He founded his own record label in 1992.
