I know I was thinking of painting the apartment windows on the tree stump but was too lazy-haaaaa! Actually come to think of it it woulda made it alot cooler..

Or something from the inner art (the stuff behind the windows). But don't sweat it... it is plenty cool as is!

This. Is. Brilliant! Your work is always a visual treat.
Have wondered what a Blondie (Debbie Harry) piece would look like in your style, maybe ala the song "Rapture" [link] with crazy graffiti, a man from Mars (flying saucers) and of course Fab Five Freddy.

THAT would be fun to paint-I remember the video pretty much from along time ago! Emma Mount painted a pretty great debbie harry [link]

Incredible! The only thing that'd make it better is Molly Ringwald.

I love all the tiny details you've included, but the subject from Wyeth's "Christina's World" really caught my eye! Great job, as usual, Dave!

Yeah-Shes right smack dab in the middle of the painting and has nothing to do with Led Zeppelin at all!haaaaa-I had originally drawn a little jimmy page with the glowing red eyes like in the scene from TSongRemainsTS where hes near the river with the music box..but it woulda looked silly with 2 Jimmys and was too obscure..anywho-Thanks for the Props Mr.DeccaMcMichael

It clearly shows your roots in art.

Well, it's a small detail that shows your roots in classical art.

This is one of my all-time faves from the brushes of Doctor Dave.
Love the Crowley reference and all the others that show you really know your Led Zep fun facts as only a true fan would.
Just a side note, I saw these mugs in San Antonio, on the Houses of the Holy tour and Robert Plant was wearing the little puffy shoulder shirt(?) you have portrayed.

That Puffy shirt explains why they nicknamed him "Percy"

"Rosebud...!"
After staring at your painting for 5 minutes, I had the urge to listen to Led Zeppelin.

Yeah-Cool! While painting this I made a mix tape of my faves I havent heard in years-Like The Rain Song-Houses of The Holy-Stairway To Heaven-Misty Mountain Hop-Hey Hey What Can I Do-and my ultimate fave is What Is And Should Never Be..I listened to those same 6 songs for 10 hrs a day for 9 days straight man--freakin wierrrrd
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
hahaha that's awesome! Many times I tend to do the same thing and listen to the same list of songs over and over again while working on something 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah I was addicted to the entire Physical Graffitti and came to the conclusion that it was my fave at the time-Just about every song is great but theres some stinkys too{the lemon song sucks

I remember Page giving an interview at the time saying that In The Light was "the new Stairway..."
Never thought so myself, being an avowed Ten Years Gone fan

Plant: "Hey Jimmy, how are we gonna call this track?"
Page: "Eh... uh... (looks at Bonzo putting lemon in his 5 o'clock tea)... let's put it The Lemon Song, get it out of the way, and the album is officially finished!"

Definitive, iconographic caricatures and ingenious vignettes; hey, Ma, I can't get Houses Of The Holy out of my hair...

Now I have Immigrant Song stuck in my head
Not that it's a BAD thing.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Cool-Yeah I kinda put the Zep away after playing it out for too many years=but It was a total blast from the past playing back. Great great timeless stuff! Sadly, The last I heard Immigrant Song was in "School Of Rock"
