This expressive portrait pays tribute to the legendary Polish jazz trumpeter Tomasz Stańko. Captured through a stylized lens, the painting emphasizes both character and mood — the essence of a man whose sound defined modern European jazz. The exaggerated proportions of his hands and trumpet draw the viewer into the rhythm of his craft, while the warm, metallic tones of the instrument contrast with the cool, shadowed palette of his attire. Every brushstroke suggests movement and music, evoking the introspective energy of a late-night performance. This piece celebrates not just Stańko the musician, but Stańko the spirit of jazz itself — bold, soulful, and timeless.
