This was a nice Christmas gift. I just received the latest issue of Uppercase Magazine in the mail and one of my paintings was included. Thank you Uppercase Magazine I’m so grateful. I love this magazine so much!! This is issue is about music. Personally music affects my art quite a bit. I NEED music to not only get me in the mood to paint, but also to sustain me for long painting sessions. One of my Spotify top 5 listened to artists this year was Chaka Khan, which didn’t surprise me at all because when I feel like belting out a song in the studio, she’s one of my go-to artists. Anyway, “Hello Happiness” is a song of hers that I love and influenced this painting.
