Her innovations in songwriting, guitar tunings, and vocal phrasing left an indelible mark on music. #jonimitchell #caroleking #jamestaylor #1960smusic #singersongwriter #chelseamorning | Jeff Waters

Microdose Of Art on Instagram: "Most people know Joni Mitchell as one of the greatest musicians of all time. But she always considered herself a painter first. She studied visual art before fame, painted her own album covers, and used painting as a private space where she didn’t have to perform. Even after a life-altering brain aneurysm, she returned to painting as part of her healing. This is Joni Mitchell the visual artist. #MicrodoseOfArt #JoniMitchell #ArtHistory"
