"My creative practice is a dialogue between the structured discipline of the jazz standard and the boundless freedom of original composition.When i work with acrylics and pastels, i build layers of " visual time-rhythms,much like the core foundation of songs we play as a group.A number of these paintings are spontaneous in the moment like jazz improvisation in the moment. I am trying to capture the " colors of sounds,melodies within the friction of time & space.What a joy to express seeing - hearing about the universe.If one is interested in my music website, which is on the menu as a link it is billpetitti.com
