About this work
A man in a dark tuxedo and bow tie stands in profile, a trombone tucked under his arm, gazing upward into darkness as if waiting in the wings. Above him, a diagonal beam and a string of round stage lights recede into a murky backdrop of deep maroon and near-black, evoking a corridor or wings just off a lit stage.
Broad, loaded brushstrokes sweep across the vertical canvas, leaving visible ridges of paint that catch light like the beam overhead. Cobalt blue, wine red, and near-black dominate, punctuated by the warm brass glint of the instrument, giving the scene a tense, anticipatory hush before a performance.
