My series Sketchworks are an expression of abstract art inspired by jazz improvisation. I listen to jazz and sketch with pencil or pen in black and white and let the melodies and harmonies and chord changes influence my sketching. Every note of an improvised solo is reflected in the marks I make on paper. I try to give visual form to the audio expressions I hear. Whether I’m listening to Traditional jazz, Standards, Cool jazz, Bebop, Hard Bop, Ballads, all styles can be recognized in Sketchworks. Available for purchase at:

has been for sale for some time, as you have seen. The maintenance and ongoing development to keep our non-profit and idealistic platform for contemporary art running and safe from hackers etc. costs money that is no longer there. Because of small investments that are necessary now and the running costs, we will have to shut down with a heavy heart at the beginning of summer on June 21.
