It's funny how things can work out. "Exit music" is a very evocative piece of music for me, mostly because of what I was going through when I used to listen to it more. So, I see this picture, (and it's up to your usual incredible standard, of course), and decide to give the song another listen. I stick it on on youtube, and take another look at your painting. And somehow, in-between then and now, it's gained an extra layer of depth - this painting has now become evocative for me in a way that it wasn't before.
Kinda weird, huh? Is it just me that gets memories and emotions attached to songs and pictures and words? Do you find that unexpected things can become connected via unusual emotional bonds/memories?
In any case, magnificent piece
