What colors do you associate with Jazzfest in New Orleans? Trying to finish up a painted lampshade, and kinda at a stopping place because of that.

I learned to love folk art because of my ex and MIL, Judy Culbertson. I love the whole unconventional canvas and particular sayings and formats. Howard Finster has ‘Lord Love You’. Reverend Bob, from my hometown of New Orleans, had ‘Be Nice Or Leave’. And so many more.
I consider my pieces firmly in the folk art traditions that I came to love. Unconventional canvas. Religious ferver and mental illness are common amongst the ones I love. Missionary Mary Proctor. Jimmy Lee Suddeth. Clementine Hunter. Al Tapist (another NOLA artist. Purvis Young. Ab the Flagman….and on and on. I love the unconventionality they brought to art, and has made me a huge fan and collector of their works. Doing final tweaks on the first of a second series of ten. First sold out quickly. Going a bit more in depth now. It’s a takeoff of Pooh Bear and the Grateful Dead Dancing Bears iconography, with a line I wrote a few years back. I think the message those two create is perfectly represented here.
Doing final tweaks on this first one. The other 9 original paintings will each be different. Prints will be available as well. You can DM me if interested in purchasing one of the original paintings in this new series.
