Smoky Mountain Gypsy Jazz - Illustration by Andrea Lauren

I've got another piece to share!  This one combines two of my favorite themes: musicians and nature.  I recently saw a gorgeous photo of the Smoky Mountains at sunset and had to take inspiration from the rolling hills for this animal duo.  I can imagine them playing some Gypsy Jazz in the evening.

I have always been a fan of the Gypsy Jazz style and am amazed by this Marc O'Connor performance in a trio with guitarist Frank Vignola.

 I wanted to continue with the sea theme a bit more after finishing the frogs painting and a narwhal and banjo piece came together this time.  This is one of my new favorites!  I have a couple more to finish up in the series so check back soon for more.

On The Water - Illustration by Andrea Lauren

I just finished up a new painting this week!



It's a sweltering hot day today in NYC so it is really feeling like summer finally. I'm looking forward to spending some time outdoors this weekend and getting in to the swing of summer in the city.
