Jazz Zone’s
featured Artist Amos Harper
http://www.jazzzone.net/Amos%20Harper.htm
Beautiful paintings can be created with water
color, but must demonstrate some
mastery of the medium because it is a medium
with little or no forgiveness. Oil
is the second
choice. It is also important to consider the
style of the artist. Amos happens to work in
several styles. Abstract Expressionist and some
of his Jazz
Musicians
&
Cubic
series paintings will be on display.
Artist:
George Combs
http://www.jazzzone.net/George%20Combs.htm
His mediums of choice are oils, acrylics,
watercolors and mixed-disciplinary art form. In
his collection there are beautiful sculptures
and ceramics and portraits painted in oils with
exquisite breath-taking details to gritty
surrealistic oil painting influence by Salvador
Dali's style depicting social injustices created
to evoke every emotion the human body can
imagine.
