A Mississippi delta blues musician lives the life that he sings about. The smoke rings and trailing smoke have conspired to form a ghost-like image. I created it to imply that this blues man is dealing with ghosts of his past. Forgive! oh blues man...and you, too, shall be forgiven of all of your shortcomings And you shall be made whole again.

  Greetings, Jerrie! I was very much impressed with this artwork, my friend! I love pictures in which the sense leaves far for frameworks represented. When you look, and thought is already far in other place, about a life. Here a life as it is. Contrast between a youth and a maturity! Thoughts bluesmen about irrevocably left youth and caducity of life... I love a blues also! The blues is a life, its musical embodiment from depth of soul...
  Artist Reply:   Thank you for seeing the meaning in the painting. This is a personal painting because I used my facial features, my profile, to play the blues man and the artist. He lives the life that he sings about.
