Philip C. Hughlett's artwork is a collection of acrylic painting, charcoal drawings, watercolor and pen & ink. His focus is currently on musicians and the relationship between the figure, the instrument, and the music itself. The way hands move across the strings of a guitar or vibrate on the double bass give the art a feeling of rhythm and emotion similar to the music itself. Using an eclectic combination of illustrative techniques, Philip's paintings capture the various styles of music from jazz and classical, to bluegrass and funk. His watercolor drawings mingle coffee, wine, and Indian ink with traditional watercolor paint to create a dynamic relationship of motion and color on a more intimate scale. The larger charcoal drawings offer bold contrast and a more graphic style to the mix.
