"Miles Plays Miles" ( Inks on 12" X 24" cold press illustration board ) per the Future-Primitif Rhythmic Zone was done as an album cover for the legendary jazz icon Miles Davis in 1975 by Prof. Onli. He & Miles could reach positive business terms so Onli refused to allow Miles to use it. It is an early masterwork of Rhythmism. During that time Onli was gigging as a major market illustrator.

Rhythmistic art is future-primitif in nature and often concept.  It is both impressive and expressive.
The work of Prof. Onli tends to meld technique and skill with concept and visual adventure.  This work explores the Zulu tension of traditions yet being overwhelmed by the industrial modern era.
