Wonderful World
At 17, Louis Armstrong was playing in brass bands and on river boats in New Orleans. (He learned to sight read on the river boats!) But the real beginnings of Louis Armstrong’s 50-year career saw him playing the cornet in Joe Oliver’s Creole Jazz Band in Chicago.
​
His instantly recognizable rich, gravelly voice leant itself well to singing, and the jazz coursing through his veins came out of his mouth in the form of scat singing and bending of melody notes. Armstrong was one of the first popular African-American entertainers to "cross over" to wide popularity with white and international audiences.
He also appeared in a few films and was posthumously inducted into the Rhythm & Blues Hall of Fame. He is also the first name on the membership list in the Jazz Hall of Fame.

Wrapped canvases look almost like the original in that the giclée print is on canvas, wrapped around the wooden stretcher bars. I've been asked to make embellishments on these prints, which I'm happy to do for you as well.

FAQs
​
-
Q: What is your return policy?
A: Returns and exchanges can be made at any time. You will be refunded for everything except shipping.
-
Q: Does the painting or print arrive signed by the artist? If so, where?
A: Yes. I sign all my paintings with paint in one of the bottom corners of the canvas, and all my prints with pencil in the bottom right corner of the print. I also include the print number in the bottom left corner of the print and the title in the middle.
-
Q: What kind of paint is used?
A: Acrylic. I also use matte gel for texture and sometimes to create what I call a "faux frame," as on the Mad Dog and Raoul paintings.
I finish all paintings with two coats of varnish. If you require an isolation layer, I can add one however that will increase the final cost. (An isolation layer is a transparent coat of gloss gel that is applied over the acrylic paint and under the coats of varnish. Its purpose is to allow future retouching of the painting, should there ever be a need for this.)
-
Q: On which medium does the artist paint?
A: I usually paint on canvas however I also use wood panels.
