Mixed media, gouache & ink on Steinbach paper.
"..... Well we did the Staten Island Ferry
Making movies for the telly
Played the Fillmore and Apollo for freedom
Tried to shake our image
Just a cycling through the Village
But found that we had left it back in London
Well nobody came to bug us, hustle us or shove us
We decided to make it our home
If the man wants to shove us out
We gonna jump and shout
The Statue of Liberty said "Come!"
New York City...New York City...New York City
Que pasa New York?...Que pasa New York?
Hey hey
Hey New York City
Back in New York City
Hey New York City
Que pasa New York?...Que pasa New York?
Hey City
Down in the Village
Hey what a city
Que pasa New York?...Que pasa New York?
Hey walk on
Yeah
Que pasa New York?...Que pasa New York?......"

Watercolour, ink and coloured pencils on Steinbach paper 27x36 cm.
"Looking back in anger
On this dirty little town
It stained your dress carved up my face
Put a wedge between our state of grace
Somethings so young and pretty
Should never be released
We place our bets we take our pick
They wind up in the belly of the beast
And when you can't get what you want
You take anything you can
So I wear this suit of wolves at night
I slip it on how come it feels so right
I get a hungry woman
When I can't get what I want
I take anything I can
I wear a suit of wolves..."
SUIT OF WOLVES - Music & lyrics Elton John & Bernie Taupin, 1992. (woman=man)
"Great Blue Heron Beside Shore Grass' by Patti Deters. A Great Blue Heron (GBH) (Ardea herodias) stands graceful and tall beside a small cluster of painterly rocks and beach grass. These are wading birds, commonly found along shorelines across North America. The blend of a photograph with painted accents creates a clean, simple scene where you can focus on and appreciate the bird's feathers and plumage. Thank you for viewing this picture.
