The theme to an upcoming art show was music. So I dug up my old sax and painted it. I decided to go with a monochromatic theme, using just black and white paint. I did the background with a mix of pthalo blue and cadmium orange. Since the granite counter had a bit of blue in it, I did add a few spots of blue as well. As luck would have it, it was accepted into the show along with another piece I'll post next time.
My love of the arts began early on in life and was greatly influenced by an inspiring photography teacher in high school. I began teaching myself to paint in 2019 and have had my work exhibited in numerous shows in the Detroit area. One of the joys of being an artist is looking at the world in totally different ways and discovering a painting or photograph in a million unexpected places. For inquiries: dominmark@yahoo.com
