Art of Jazz Tour 2018
iPad Artworks

Posted by on Feb 22, 2018 in Uncategorized | No Comments

Enjoy these iPad artworks from the epic and amazing Art of Jazz tour with the Birdland All-Stars featuring Tommy Igoe where I painted live on stage as the band played, working in three media: on canvas, paper and iPad. The iPad paintings shown below were all created live on stage using iPad Pro, Apple Pencil and the Procreate app. For an overview video click here and for all the artworks (in all media) click here. On this five week tour I performed in 21 shows in 20 cities, travelled 6,500 miles in the bus (plus another 6,000 miles on plane) and created over 125 artworks. These iPad artworks, or crops from within them, can be produced as metalPrints and I can add an exciting Augmented Reality (AR) component.
