I’ve been knowing Ray for about about 8 years since he came into the Jazz Bakery one Saturday afternoon carrying his seminal work “Jazz Phenomenon”. I’d been helping out at the JB for about 2 years at the time, building the artwork for the club calendar and hanging out for shows.”My name is Ray Mc Cray and I’m a artist.” Ray was invited to do a retrospective of his work, where he hung 14 pieces. “Jazz Phenomenon” hung in the JB for the next 5 years while many other artist work showed around it.
I am starting this blog in the hopes that Ray can attract lots of “Guest Bloggers” to view and write about his painting.
