Well, although I did begin working on plans for a large painting I got bogged down very soon after beginning and decided I'm not really interested in doing a large painting right now- at least not that one. In the mean time a good friend and fine musician, Bob Loy, asked me if I would be interested in making a video of a song he recorded with Anthony Riley.
Anthony's story is a sad one, chronicled here and in many other publications -http://articles.philly.com/2015-06-09/news/63189019_1_battle-round-best-street-performer-the-voice
Bob was in the middle of recording many of his own songs with Anthony when he died. This is a lovely piece called Flowers. This is not the official version. It is an exclusive preview for you faithful followers. After working with the music for a couple of weeks I find it very moving. Is it the back story, the lyrics, the voice? Let me know what you think.
Here is the video -https://youtu.be/ahKFNHs2MOc
