Daggi Wallace - Work Detail: Blowing Harp II-James Cotton

framed size James Cotton earned the nickname "Superharp", in part because he blew his harmonica so hard its teeth feel out! Now, that's passion for your art! I actually had the pleasure to meet this wonderful musician a couple of years ago on a flight from Hawaii. Unfortunately, I did not get to talk to him much because he was seated in another cabin, and I did not notice him until the end of the flight. I wish I'd had a chance to tell him how much I enjoyed painting this portrait of him.
