Painting and Music: A nice duo with Trio


This past Wednesday, I had the honor to do a "speed-painting" during the duration of a concert performed by Trio in Stereo. (Visit MySpace or Facebook to learn more about this Chicago band!) I was invited to do a painting of some sort so I decided to role out the paper right on the floor in front of the stage. With paint markers, oil sticks and the Magnum 44 permanent marker, I created an image of the 5 band members in roughly 45 minutes. There were many comments on the strong odor this marker produces. Permanent marker is not a sense typically associated at the bar but, well, this was a multi-sensory experience for sure!
Next time, I'm definitely bringing knee pads!
