Ok, try this again - slightly better photo, I hope! Hard to make this look nice and crisp next to the digital artwork. Maybe that's why everyone is going digital, doh!
= I guess this is more a painting for owning and hanging on the wall. If anyone is so inclined....
First oil painting I've finished since I did the Fantastic Journeys exhibition last year. As the title implies, it has something to do with music. Part of it came to me in a dream (doesn't happen very often, but when it does, I think there is a moral obligation to get off one's arse and paint it), and it has to do with a place, and it has to do with a person, but other than that, I really have no clue.
I don't know if it's any good, either - you tell me. One thing I do know, it came out of my own head, rather than using other people's ideas and images as crutches, as I have usually done so far. And the music connection is perhaps something I should explore more.
It also ties in with the Dylan thing - though I started this painting many months ago, long before I got onto this trip, it seemed to me that Dylan's work was the right thing to listen to while finishing this.
Oil and gold leaf on canvas.
Whatever.

Have you seen my newsletter? [link] -- I'd be happy to put you on the list!
(usually they aren't quite as long and involved as this one turned out to be.... )
cheers, Asni
