About the poster
Carol Dolgoff's life-long love of music, especially the blues and jazz, has long inspired her to paint the subjects she does. A native of the Bay Area, Carol’s love for live music grew from seeing bands such as The Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, Santana and The Doobie Brothers. She attended school with many of the band members and always had her sketch book with her. Dolgoff describes living in Anacortes as "a dream come true," adding that "this breath taking area has such a wealth of quality musicians, I never run out of subject matter!"
