This is the second anniversary of my arrival in New Orleans as a full time resident. To celebrate, here is a 10" square painting of Aaron Neville as he closed the Blues Tent at Jazz Fest 2014. It is done a photo I took at the set. It was an amzing expereince as he did great covers of my R&B favorite songs, many of which I had not heard him do before. It was if he read my ind and choose my personal playlist. His borther, Cyril, joined at the end for a Bob Marley cover. Another brother, Charles played sax througout the set. This is the first of a series of ten paintings I am doing based on photos I took at Jazz Fest.
The best way to easily see most of my paintings for sales is to go to my Facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/bill.ives2 - and look at Photos and albums within Photos. I have three photo albums covering my art. One is for discounted pairings under $100. The other is for most of the rest (over $100). The third is for paintings that I have either sold or ones that are not for sale. However, if anyone is interested in them I will paint another version for them on commission. I will ship anywhere and have shipped art works as far as Australia.
