Brilliant Corners

I drew these is early May, whilst listening to one of my favourite albums of all time-- Blues 'n Roots by Charles Mingus. His style and recording methods are so organic that you feel like the music itself is a living, breathing thing, right there in the room with you, on the train, on the street, in the pub. A welcome presence, like a friend whose company you never tire of. Below is a pseudo-caricature of another one of my favourite jaw-dropping rule-breaking jazz masters, Thelonius Monk.
