The Study of Thelonious Monk
This Jazz musician and composer was recognized for his unconventional, and unorthodox way of playing the piano. His fingers in the speed of lightning across the keyboard.
Ironically, an unorthodox technique was used for his portrait study. I applied a black ink wash and white out ( yes, the material use for correcting mistakes when typing! )
Interestingly, I subconsciously pay tribute to this legendary performer the same way he played and composed music, thinking outside the box!
