the idea for this painting came to mind because i like to listen to music while i work. i listen to a wide variety, but while painting, i really like vocal jazz music like frank sinatra, peggy lee and dean martin. i wanted to capture the spirit of this kind of music, with the chrome microphone, the black dress and long dark hair.
