Attractive pair of original color paintings by artist Clifford Bailey, both accomplished in acrylic on stretched canvas measuring 12 x 6, with one entitled “Little Blues” and the other entitled “Quartet,” both of which show musical groups of four and are signed in an upper corner in black felt tip. The reverse of each is also signed and titled by the artist. In overall fine condition.
Since 1987, Bailey’s original oil paintings on canvas have portrayed his uniquely recognizable vision of people and musicians in a variety of settings: card tables, street corners, jazz clubs, juke joints, and box seats at the theater. Bailey’s initial launch swept Miami’s hot South Beach scene with one-night only exhibits at popular nightclubs and crowded pool halls, and for over 10 years he was a fixture at Coconut Grove’s legendary Café Tu Tu Tango, where he would delight onlookers and collectors alike by painting live in the midst of the bustling restaurant. It was these showings that first brought him exposure and large-scale promotion.
