Marvin

Chalk Pastel, fender pick ,sheet music, Bass quitar strings and Gold Leaf on Blk archival board / created as a collage tribute to Marvin Gaye. The song Mercy Mercy Me was chosen it seemed appropriate to represent his tragic death,the sheet music was crumbled and the edges burned to represent his music going up in smoke after he was killed,a fender pick and bass quitar strings to represent his multi-talent, gold leaf to represent the Galaxy and the stars with his music ascending to the heavens ,and the blue arch representing Earth. This Image is offered as a Limited Edition Giclee Print / 250 signed and numbered with 50 A/P's. This image is also available in custom large format Giclee sizes.

A very introspective art work. Thanks for explaining the elements that you used to express you love for Mr. Marvin Gaye's wonderful music. It helped me to make the connection.
