Art Tatum By David Stone Martin

(photo:Gjon Mili; bassist-Oscar Pettiford) There is no doubt that Art Tatum is the greatest pianist that ever lived. If you’ve never heard his music, go get some a.s.a.p. This particular David Stone Martin illustration is interesting as a real study of his minimalistic drawing style as you can see from the Gjon Mili photo that it was taken from.

Art Tatum & Oscar Peterson- R.I.P. My Heroes in their approach, intelligence, Phenomenal skill level, PASSION for their art/craft. Also at that period African Americans had a much harder time at certain venues, Besides the colored signs and having to enter places in the back. They are truly two Iconic individuals whose works are internationally respected. <3 :-)
