The Fifth Element

The Fifth Element 1

The Fifth Element

The Fifth Element of Jazz is form, and form, in the shape of human form is what excites me in my practice, so my work sets out to conjure up the moods and feelings of Jazz which is unique in Jazz music as musicians try to express emotions through their playing which is exactly what artists strive to do in their work.

The sheet music is taken from my Mother’s collection which for some reason I kept all these years since she died. She loved playing the piano and so finding a use for her jazz music in these paintings was a real joy for me and definitely brings back happy memories!
