A sketchy portrait of Sal Nistico. This one´s for Johnny Brewton.
I'd heard Sal Nistico's name but I didn´t know much about this guy when Johnny mentioned him. He played mostly tenor sax and was with Woody Herman in the sixties. But he was more of a bebop man on his own albums later. He also played together with Nick Brignola, the bariton saxophone guy.  
 

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2019!

Another watercolor jazz portrait. Walter Theodore "Sonny" Rollins. The Master. He has recorded over sixty albums as a leader.

Size 25x36 cm (10x14").

Happy holidays and best wishes! 
Thanks for following my stuff here.

Here's a new water color of Sun Ra. He knew how to appear to get our attention!    

A good friend said this is my best poem.
I hope not. But maybe, if you are old enough, this will make you smile...
