The illustration features two green silhouetted female and male figures both holding one bottle of 7up that erupts into a psychedelic explosion of colorful flowers, hearts, and butterflies, the male figure has a red love heart on his chest. This was inspired by Henri Matisse's "Blue Nude III."

As a fan I regret there’s a part of him that is lost forever. He still has good new songs but yes, we must say adieu to the old lyricism. Too much rage for too much time.
Sí, el dijous hi ha els teatres, discoteques. Més el Mobile, més pluja. Què hi farem…
Doncs et vols creure que no vaig trobar aparcament i me’n vaig haver de tornar a casa? Amb les entrades a la butxaca. Encara no m’ho crec ara. Els haviem vist a l’estiu, però. Va ser un gran concert també. Ho celebro per tu.
Vas anar-hi dijous, a l’Apolo?

Sault lost me somewhere down the path but Chapter 1 feels like a reset and I’m back onboard baby.

I saw The Stone Bridge and The Drawbridge last Monday and was surprised by how small they are. I'll look for more of Jan van der Heyden's work in other Dutch museums. Thanks for your publications.

Good, isn't it?
One Fine Morning is a delicately sketched film. It is cinema in pencil, rather than pen; a film of light attenuated mornings, understated conversations where decisions are never quite made, melodrama happening off screen.

How right. It is incredible how in such popular cities like Rome or Venice masses rush to emblematic places while others in the vicinity remain quiet.

A lot of illustrations from him are featured on the cover of jazz records. Easy to spot on as he has a very personal style.
First thing that caught me. Really beautiful.
I envy you 😀
Absolutely. But I’m in love with Sicily!
Now this reminds me of the time we were in Palermo two summers ago when we saw some short quotations along the narrow streets of the old city. Not flashy neons, dimmed ones there, too. I liked it.
Amazing indeed. I was there last April and the lights were not. But what amazes me most is such a tranquil street there in the very center of such a busy city. Thanks a lot for the pictures, they’re beautiful.
I know where you mean. Just after exiting Babette. Thanks for the lead!
Will try to spot it the next time I’m there. So charming a street.
