About the Artwork

Ink on Paper.43cm x 53 cm (framed)

In this surrealist drawing, the daily routine of musical practice becomes an impossible landscape. The wooden floor rises into a flight of stairs, while instruments, sheet music, books and studio clutter fill the scene. A sharp tension emerges between the rigid, manufactured lines of the bookshelves and the cascading, organic curves of the potted plant, acting like a living metronome that grounds the work. Through the arched doorway, tempting outdoor scenes remain just visible, contrasting the quiet, inward focus of making music with the world outside.

A quiet street scene becomes a meeting point for music and mood. Figures in the style of L.S. Lowry move through the rain, while a lone sax player brings a bright note to the grey surroundings. Bubbles drift through the damp air, catching small flashes of colour. Music manuscript lines blend into the town’s buildings, giving the whole scene the gentle rhythm of a rainy day.

Inspired by a jazz standard recorded by Wynton Marsalis on soprano saxophone, this piece brings music and visual language together. The upright shape of the saxophone creates the bird’s body, while flowing lines and jewel-like colours suggest its feathers. The tail extends beyond the canvas, giving the work a sense of movement and sound continuing into the room.

In this multi-layered surrealist work, the search for creative inspiration transforms into an intricate juxtaposition of memory and landscape. A stark black silhouette of the artist's signature saxophone player stands isolated in the foreground, clutching his instrument against a textured, field-like plain. A sharp tension emerges between this quiet, introspective figure and the lively, vertical canvas behind him, which depicts a bustling riverside fairground complete with a Ferris wheel, bare trees, and figures enjoying the water. Framed by a dark border of arching branches, vibrant green-and-gold leaves, and subtle floral patterns, the composition captures an internal, solitary spark that finds melody in the world's vibrant, chaotic pulse.

Acrylic on board.  33cm x 43cm (framed)

Set against a deep nocturnal canopy of midnight blues, a lone figure stands in the stillness of the trees to play. Inspired by nature, the music materializes into translucent bubbles that drift upward toward the branches, capturing that singular, meditative space where an artist finds complete harmony and solitude with the forest

Acrylic. 58cm x 48cm (framed)

In this surrealist drawing, painted on the day the artist learned of the passing of bebop giant Sonny Rollins, the boundary of a bubble becomes an otherworldly sanctuary for the tenor saxophone. The view is captured from a skewed, immersive perspective inside the largest bubble, where the detailed instrument is nestled safely away from the vast gray void outside—a cosmic tribute to a force of nature who redefined improvisation. A sharp tension emerges between the deep, dark space drifting with small planetary spheres and the bright, vibrant orange crescent outlining the protective barrier. This cosmic isolation contrasts the quiet, inward focus of a master's lifelong dedication to his craft with the infinite universe outside
