Randall Sinnamon Portrait of Joseph Tawadros

Imagine the sound of this artwork and sway in time to the beat.

Randall Sinnamon has painted Egyptian–Australian musician and composer Joseph Tawadros playing his oud. Surrounded by bold patterns and shapes, Joseph wears a fez (a type of hat) and colourful clothes. How many parts of the painting are painted pink? Do you think Joseph is playing for an audience?

If you could play along with Joseph, what musical instrument would you choose?
