Nicole Izobel Garcia – Manos Del Chango

Some moments stay with you long after the music fades. This painting was born from one of those moments — a live performance by Nicole Izobel Garcia of Manos Del Chango at the Hawke's Bay Art Festival, a night that left me completely spellbound.Unable to find their music on Spotify, I turned to YouTube, watching concert footage again and again — and somewhere between the sound and the screen, a sketch began to take shape. That sketch became this painting.Medium: Acrylic on recycled wood Dimensions: 540 × 420 mm Original, one-of-a-kind artworkA piece for those who believe music can be seen as much as heard.
