In three hours of class I created this......

Story of my life..  but here's an refinement of a previous graphic that I'm actually happy with. Not the floor, but it could be. originally thought of it as a wall piece.. but yeah


Hand lettered quote by Betty Carter, "If it wasn't for the pimps, prostitutes, hustlers, gang bangers, and gambles, there wouldn't be no jazz! They supported the club owners who bought the music. It wasn't the middle class people that said, "Let's go hear Charlie Parker tonight.""


I thought this quote fit really well with my idea of jazz in the day vs. jazz at night. Two different feels, two different moods.
