... The title? Well some days you just cain't find that groove. I kept
this painting, unsure as I was, thinking maybe i'd eventually see how
profound it was... & there are maybe a few passages but...
I finally threw it out. ..the CP II. written on the bottom left?....
it's a variation of Canston Panstover. And now these years later, 2012,
the painting seems to me pretty good... Jerry Garcia was
cussing out the band for a lackadaisical performance one night - then
they listened to the tapes & decided to use them on an album... "So
I quit judging it." he said. I inserted black & white fairly often,
as here as if the other is background for black & white melody...
what I'm liking now is that green, violet, red... and the brushwork.
