"Blowin Blues" is a realistic image of a man soulfully playing the harmonica. The background of the print is all black, with a thin auburn line that gives the appearance of a black border as well. The harmonica player is an older African American man wearing a black felt hat, blue jacket and dark sunglasses. He's also wearing a watch with a leather strap. The attention to detail in his hands and face really bring the image to life.
Steven Johnson has several other images of Jazz musicians as well. Others in this series include a piano player and a group of musicians playing various instruments in brightly colored clothing.
This work makes a great gift for Jazz music enthusiasts and could also decorate a club or smaller music venue. A black frame would be the most popular finishing choice for this contemporary piece of art.
