For the annual Jazz in Pines event in Idyllwild, I created door-sized banners to decorate the deck of Cafe Aroma, a local restaurant. Jazz greats Miles Davis, Billie Holiday, and Louis Armstrong, hung next to local musicians, including Marshall Hawkins, Herb Jeffries and Casey Abrams. After three years, I had a solo show at Cafe Aroma and sold some banners. My next goal was to show in galleries with large wall spaces to help protect the banners from the elements.
Here are a few of the Jazz in the Pines banners for sale for $650 each plus tax and shipping. They are original acrylic banners on canvas tab-topped curtains. Banner sizes vary.
