BlackCommentator.com: Art - Marvin Gaye By Kadir Nelson, San Diego CA
 
This piece was commissioned for Marvin's Room Recording Studio

Marvin Gaye lounges on a classic black velvet sofa in the studio (circa. 1972). He stares into space in contemplation of a new lyric or simply in appreciation of a beautiful woman who just walked by, He sits surrounded by papers scribbled with ideas and possible lyrics for songs that linger in his imagination.
