John de marco 2009年去世,享年72岁。

Music was more than an inspiration for artist John De Marco. He believed music and painting were the same and he saw shading and rhythm in both. Known for his surrealist works and his paintings of blues and jazz musicians, Mr. De Marco also used guitars as a canvas. One of his painted guitars featured the face of Jimi Hendrix, another that of Stevie Ray Vaughn.
The San Diego native also shared his passion for art and used his own experiences to help others as a counselor and art teacher at a drug-treatment program.
Mr. De Marco died of cancer June 29 at San Diego Hospice. He was 72. Friends and family said he was kind, gentle and creative. He listened to music when he painted, and his love of jazz and blues spurred him to create some of his favorite paintings. The works include striking depictions of Billie Holiday, Muddy Waters and Marguerita Page.
In 2003, the Fender Museum of Music and the Arts in Corona held its first solo exhibit featuring Mr. De Marco's paintings, including a portrait of John Coltrane that depicted his saxophone as both a musical instrument and a chugging steam train.
In a 2003 interview with The San Diego Union-Tribune, Mr. De Marco said some musical sounds and notes reminded him of specific colors , and playing music often helped get him going if he wasn't particularly motivated to paint. “If I can look at a piece I've done and get the same sensation I get from a piece of music I love that really moves me, then I think I've done a good job,” he said.
Friend Steve Garber said Mr. De Marco also painted wine bottles and often left his friends notes with drawings. “He had a certain delightful childlike vision, his work was imaginative and it could be whimsical,” Garber said. “He did have an artist's temperament . . . ” Garber said. “Kind of like a storm, you had to let it blow over you. Afterward, he was soft and sweet.”
Mr. De Marco had an ability to be magical in both his art and his life, said longtime friend David Deitch. “He could find the bright lining in every cloud.” Those who knew him said Mr. De Marco's years of alcohol and drug abuse made him appreciate the clarity of vision that came with being unfettered of chemical stimulants.
Mr. De Marco, who was clean and sober since the 1980s, taught a class , titled “Creative Alternatives to Drug Addiction , ” at a drug-treatment program in Escondido.
“He talked about how drug use can sabotage your creativity,” Deitch said. “He said altered states can occur naturally (while) a chemically altered state can twist up your work.” He Mr. De Marco was born March 3, 1937, in San Diego to Ulysses Anthony and Alice Murphy De Marco. He attended Kearny High School and studied at the Chouinard Art Institute in Los Angeles in the late 1950s.
He worked in advertising as an art director and illustrator while doing freelance art projects before becoming a full-fledged struggling artist.
“He lived the classic artist's life for years,” Deitch said. “He lived in his studio, sleeping in the same room where he worked . . . with all his paintings.”
Cambria De Marco, his daughter from the second of his three marriages, said her father always knew he was going to be an artist. “He felt he had no choice but to be an artist because that was his only path.”
Mr. De Marco lived and studied art for a few years in Spain, where he had three solo exhibitions in the late 1980s.
In addition to his daughter Cambria of Del Mar, Mr. De Marco is survived by a daughter from his first marriage, Victoria Noreña of Santa Cruz; and four grandchildren. He was predeceasedpreceded in death by a brother, William Francisco De Marco. A private celebration of life will be held Aug. 1 for family and friends.
