Drummond artist Tony de Freitas is painting his way to the top. He has two passions, art and music and chooses to invest in both. “Art satisfies me intellectually, music more emotionally. I wouldn’t shed tears over a painting but over a piece of music, certainly. What I’m doing is playing jazz with paint. Just as a jazz artist may pull together a plethora of apparently random strokes, those random strokes contribute to what the artist sees as the bigger picture” said, de Freitas.
