Jazz exhibition in Stavelot next week-end

Yai, an exhibition again! This time, I am the one showing my work with Blaise thanks to this blog again. We are setting up an exhibition of our jazz paintings - only big formats, the two images you see here both measure at least 1 meter. The show takes place during a small jazz festival at l'abbaye de Stavelot.

jazz and draw takes a week of vacation

Since I will be on vacation this coming week and will therefore not be able to post, I thought I'd make one big post for you. I called up my good friend (and jazz lover) Blaise Dehon whose work you've seen here before and who made an exhibition about jazz not so long ago (you might remember that). He sent me some of the pieces he presented at this exhibition. Hope you like them.
See you in a week,

Philippe.
