Artist's Statement
Move to the Beat of Your Own Drum
By Marley Washington
My idea represents community seniors socializing and doing things that elders aren’t typically depicted doing, encouraging them to stay active. I came up with the idea of an older man playing the drums with so much passion you would swear he was 60 years younger than he truly is. Can you find "stay loose, have fun, move to the beat of your own drum" hidden, with double meaning, in the painting?
