Sketch Book Allstars: Birdland (Headliner)

With the help of some friends, I have compiled a roster of talented artists to contribute to a weekly sketch jam by invitation only. Every week or so we will settle on an idea and will each take a stab at illustrating the concept. The level of completion can be anything from a rough sketch to a finished rendering. This blog is intended, for those who are involved, to be an opportunity to challenge one another, to challenge ourselves, and to connect with our contemporaries in the field.

Birdland (Headliner)

Gearing up to sell print this weekend at a music fest and my show is next weekend. here is a sneak peek of one of the pieces.
Birdland has 3 Jazz references in it.
Birdland for Charile "Bird" Parker. it is the name of his jazz club.
1964 Supreme Ave. for John Coltrane and the year A Love Supreme was released 1964
May 26 for Miles Davis's Birthdate.
I have two other pieces that will go with this one as a series. But i haven't started them yet.
