Oil on canvas. 22"x28".

A spontaneous painting. I am just trying to convey, visually, how certain kinds of more abstract music sounds to me, particularly modern Jazz.

Gorgeous colors and fantastical imagery, from the concrete, earth-bound solid forms to the ethereal apparitions. Reminds me a little bit of Dali's "Swans Reflecting Elephants" in different ways.

Thanks. It was a fun painting to do. My concept was to paint organic forms near the bottom and horizon that would appear solid then become translucent as they reached upward into the blackness of space.

You're welcome, nice job. You succeeded very well in my opinion. I wish I could paint like this. Take a look at my two abstract digital pieces I've done if you have a chance and let me know what you think.

Thanks. This was a fun painting to do. I had a vague idea of what the overall structure would be but the imagery was painted in a completely spontaneous manner.

I'm glad you like it. This was a rather experimental painting. I'm working on another experimental painting now which should be done in about a week or so.
