MURAL AT SUCRE JAZZ CLUB
I've been putting much energy in to creating big scale murals. This one was done at a Jazz Club that recently opened. It is located on Dekalb and Bedford. I will also throw my record release party over there. I worked hard on it and broke night once or twice trying to create the likeness of Billy Holiday, Charlie Parker and Miles Davis (2 figures of miles both young and middle aged). Here are some pics and a vid of my work. Photos and video were taken by none other than Jendog Lonewolf, www.myspace.com/ilovejendog holler at her for a photo shoot anytime!!
Heres a short vid of me painting this piece-enjoy!
