I started working on this series of portraits in 2013. I love jazz, I love the music, I love the clubs and I am very impressed by the pure talent of the players. All of that made me want to portray them. This is an ongoing series and I am now in the process of finding ways to license them. If you are interested, please, email me.

In 2016, I started working on portraits of Belgian jazz musicians. There is a long history of excellent Belgian jazz musicians (including, of course, Toots Thielemans) and the new generation is even more promising than any generation before. This part of the series is still in the works too.
