    American music in the twentieth century has changed the world. MODERN MUSIC MASTERS pays homage to the men and women who bridged the gaps between tradition and innovation, craft and genius, entertainment and art, music and poetry, composition and improvisation, black and white. All images hand-printed by the artist on acid-free paper.

Note: Images are posted in the order in which they were created.

Words of Praise

"The result of a quarter-century of experimentation with relief-block printmaking, the series is in many ways as inspirational as the music it celebrates."
