The Trombone Player – 24″x12″
Mixed Media, Acrylics & Cold Porcelain
SOLD
Since I started my path of combining my art with my mission around hearing loss, a lot of really amazing things began to happen. Yes, I got my first art studio, I sold a bunch of artwork, I got featured in many articles, but more importantly, I learned how my art can transform, educate and affect people’s lives. Art is such a powerful medium!
I grew up around many forms of art. My grandma is a painter and sculptor, many in my family are great writers, my dad plays the guitar and my mom was a singer and an artist in the kitchen. Music was very present in my childhood. I often think of the relationship people with different types of hearing loss have with music.
On February I was contacted by a mom of a boy who plays the Trombone. She read my article on Hearing Health Magazine and decided to send me an email. She told me about her son and sent me a couple of pictures of him with his trombone. She purchase a print I have on my store of a little boy with cochlear implants playing the guitar I created for last year’s holiday. She told me she would love to see more artwork based on people wearing hearing devices and playing musical instruments.
I told her she had inspired me and wanted to do a painting based on her son! She hadn’t asked me to and it didn’t matter. Her email got me wanting to portray his love and connection to his trombone.
The Trombone player’s mom loved the painting so much, she decided to purchase it. This is what she said:
“We received The Trombonist piece, and it is spectacular! We let our son open it from the shipping box, and he was amazed and touched with the likeness. He asked many questions about how the artist came to know about him in order to create this work of art. He and his brother were surprised to learn that you and your son have different types of hearing loss and even wear different types of implant devices.
The whole family was really delighted by the 3D effects of the cold porcelain. My youngest has quite the engineering mind, and was amazed by the 3D cochlear implant, commenting that it looked like it was “so perfect and so real”. My husband loves the colors and the intensity of the piece, which I also love. He remarked on the fingers of the left land holding the trombone close to the face, and the precision and immediacy of that. Very special to me, is the 3D effect of the little angel wing coming from the outer ear. 🙂 I just love the sweetness and specialness of that juxtaposed with the drama of the face, hair, body. Thank you so much for sharing your talents!”
