So, two years later, hundreds of emails later, many phone calls across the globe…I have connected with musicians, managements, labels, lawyers, estates, cover artists, whoever it was necessary to connect with for each album…I have been quietly persistent and genuine in my quest.

So, two years later I have the permissions needed, hard won, of the paintings that I love so much.

I’d like to thank everyone who made this show possible. I’d like to thank the people who eventually tired of me and put me on to someone who made an approval possible. I’d like to thank those who ignored me, forcing me to re-route my line of inquiry that in turn ended in success, I’d like to thank those who finally understood that all I wanted was to paint how I felt about each of these albums - how I felt about the music.

I would especially like to thank those who took the time, right away, to say yes.
