John Coltrane and Pharoah Sanders 20 x 16 inches, oil on canvas, 2017 |
Coltrane's last recorded concert continues to mesmerize. His concert at the Olatunji Center of African Culture on April 23rd 1967 was his penultimate one, he died a day before my third birthday on July 17th 1964. This would be the tenth painting I've done after a photograph by F. Winham that features Coltrane's last combo with Rashied Ali, Jimmy Garrison, Pharoah Sanders and Alice Coltrane. This time I cropped the resource photo to feature Sanders and John Coltrane, Ali is represented by just an arm and a leg. The song from the concert My Favorite Things remains unchallenged at the number one spot of my continued count top 100. This and many other of my paintings are now for sale on eBay: http://stores.ebay.com/Berry-Maria-van-Boekel/VAN-BOEKEL-FINE-ART-PAINTINGS-/_i.html?_fsub=33042515011
