Original Acrylic on Canvas
Within a few years, Maurice Evans has established himself as a major force in the field of Black Art. Heavily influenced by music, his series of paintings entitled, “The Colour of Jazz”, although contemporary, tends to remind the viewer of a time when jazz was paramount. No matter the subject or whether the works are executed on paper, wood or canvas – the texture, intense colors, strong emotion and unusual, exaggerated perspectives, are what define a Maurice Evans painting.
