15/365 - Visual Art



15/365 - Visual Art, originally uploaded by freeloosedirt.
One great thing about being connected with fellow music fans through an internet forum is that many of them are creative, talented people. Here are two examples of visual art created by two members of this group.

The sculpture is titled "Knox Witness John Baloga" honoring a victim of the Pennsylvania Knox Mine disaster in 1959. I believe the Seattle artist, Zeno Henry, created one for each of the 12 miners who perished and whose bodies were never recovered.

The painting is one of a series of turntables painted by Athens, Georgia's Scott Long. I enjoy the fact that my music community has scattered their art across the country.
