So I was planning to start a portrait of my friend
Eve last Thursday. Then I saw your latest profile pic
Your profile shots are always fabulous, but this one
is like STUNNING! and i knew I could do an amazing
portrait version. So I started your portrait instead
Should be finished the middle of the month
The two collage prints I did a year ago. Was hoping I
could give them to you in person. It would have been
fun to discuss all the ways they could be
misinterpreted. The Diamond Ovum print is basically
a metaphor for Artist/Muse. The Voodoo Lounge
is poking a little fun at the Stones 'official store'. Mick
never gets tired of making a buck. The skeletons are
from the inside sleeve of the Voodoo Lounge double
LP

For me, this portrait sort of evoke those lines from
Springsteen, 'Tell me what I see when I look in your
eyes Is that you,baby or just a brilliant disguise?'
Whatever it is, I only wish you could be in all my art
Because my art is always better with you, than
without you
This being my latest work, thought you'd like to see
my first ever artistic effort, done back in pre-
Kennedy-assassination days, in wax crayon
btw it's an elephant
It's been such a long time since I've heard from you
Would love to know what you think about the portrait
and if you're still interested being in my art
