It’s Tuesday. Tuesday deserves this.
This is the cover of Pablo Picasso by the Burning Sensations that was in the cult film Repo Man (from ex-Monkee Michael Nesmith). The Modern Lovers did this song originally but the Peter Gunn-style horns in this version make it for me.

I recently added a few useful links to this blog so if you’ve a moment, please check them out. The piece to the left, Still, is by artist Mark Reep. His works are painstakingly crafted and incredibly evocative. I have always admired his work. His site and his blog are chock full of info about his work, the process and much more.
Then there is the site of old friend Scott Coulter. I have known Scott since I first started showing and he has always been most encouraging. He’s a good guy and his photo-realistic landscapes are atmospheric and striking.
Finally, there is the blog of Madara Hill. The work is bold and full of color with a bit of whimsey and the blog is, like Mark’s, an interesting look inside the process of an artist.
