Description

Step into the whimsical world of creativity with this exclusive auction item: an art lesson with local artist Al Moretti.

Delve into the boundless realms of imagination guided by a master of the unconventional, where every brushstroke tells a story and every color holds a secret.

As a painter, jazz musician, trumpeter, and composer, Al draws inspiration from the harmonies and rhythms of both sound and color. Whether wielding a brush or trumpet, his creative decisions are guided by rhythm, articulation, dynamics, phrasing, and harmony. His music composition process also influences his painting subjects and style, creating a seamless connection between the two art forms and a more conceptual approach to his work.

Beyond the canvas, you’ll also gain insights into Al’s creative process, inspirations, and personal journey, offering a deeper understanding of the artistry behind each masterpiece.

In addition to the lesson you will own one of Al’s most popular prints of John Lennon.

“Creative inspiration often comes while sleeping or on the thresholds of sleep and waking. John Lennon wrote the lyrics and chorus of ‘Across the Universe’ on one such occasion. Those occasions can be so compelling you just can’t let it be,” said Al.

“Words are flowing out
Like endless rain into a paper cup
They slither while they pass
They slip away across the universe
Pools of sorrow waves of joy
Are drifting through my open mind
Possessing and caressing me”

Bid now for the chance to unlock your artistic potential and embark on a transformative journey through the world of art with Al as your guide.
