[Painting credit: Ernie Barnes. It’s called “Sugar Shack” and was the album cover for Marvin Gaye’s “I Want You.” Mr. Barnes was the very first interview I ever had when I wrote for Numb Magazine. He was so lovely and humble. He was a featured artist for the Olympics and has paintings pretty much everywhere. One of his favourite projects was a family portrait for Will and Jada Pinkett-Smith. He’s been a pro football player and is a remarkable story unto himself.]
