spacer Desiree M D’Ambrosio Shafman
Seattle based and touring artist 

Desiree has been an artist for many years. During her artistic progression, she has discovered music as a means of creating visual art. In 1994, Desiree began studying African polyrhythms while playing in a drum circle. She discovered sound/color corelations as shapes moving through a composition and took note of thier their balance/counter balance points. This has opened up a world to her that is both aural and visual. Because of her sensitivity to tones, sounds and rhythm, she is a perfect fit with Jazz Canvas. Apart from Jazz Canvas, she has artwork featured in many galleries in the Seattle area presently.

Desiree says:
“My process of creating is based on a fusion of three mediums: painting, percussion and improvisational dance. The end result is a visual experience of music directed by corelating sound vibrations to color vibrations in which I explore similarieties in tone, characteristic movement, shape and repetition within the context of a rhythm.”
