New Painting


I love the way a really great trip changes the way you see things...Heres a new painting, Eduardo asked me to explain...so see if this helps... ... First off the painting is called
" All the Young Dudes" the title refers to the album by Mott the
Hoople, which for me is the quintessential glam rock album. Each
spiral refers to a specific song and is drawn while that song plays so
it is a record of my experience of listening. The
mountain refers to the mountains we traveled down on the bus trip we took to Rio. On the bus there was a young gay couple
that I kept watching , they reminded me of a famous series of photos of guys on the beach
that a gay philosopher shot in rio In the 70s, kind of faggy and
glammy and beautiful. Questions?
