RE: Painting my way through Kind Of Blue by Miles Davis.
The brush ripped across the snare drum and tickles the high hat cymbal with a fierce determination…
Threatening the coming storm of sound that is Miles’ horn.
The dipping of the brush on brass required a response… it required the use of a pallet knife!
Thick with paint, scraped tortuously across the canvas, threatening to rip through, but not quite…
RESTRAINT IS THE KEY!
Then comes the tickle…
almost an unwanted tickle = a deviation from the blue…
A dusty rose perhaps…
Delivered rapidly with a smaller knife…
There’s a storm coming and it’s getting dark…
stay tuned…
