I went to Jamnesia, a music festival tucked away in the woods of Hillsborough, NC and had an awesome time. It was really cold that night and my coat wasn’t sufficient enough to stand the ailments, but regardless I had fun. Music, drinks, and a chill atmosphere = a good time. There was this expressions area that was available for anyone to spray paint whatever they wish, so of course I was drawn to it.

After making this one I am compelled to create larger-scaled paintings now! If I move forward with this, I will be needing more gallery space for sure, so it’s something to think about.

And final thought: as someone who listens to music while drawing/painting/spray painting, I can’t help but wonder what it’s like to create in silence. I’m sure that even my brush strokes are influenced by the melodies of my music choices. Let’s just say that my spray painted doodle at Jamnesia is reflective of the music I was hearing that night. Had the line-up been different, you’d be looking at a completely different doodle. Who knows what I would have come up with…

Until next time. 💫
