Description
This is based on the 1968 song of the same name by Canned Heat. I could have used Born To Be Wild by Steppenwolf but this song seemed to fit the mood of this late 1960's wolf couple! They are taking a joy ride- maybe heading to the Woodstock music festival! To hear the song and see the art in progress, go toΒ www.youtube.com/watch?v=2dBqgVβ¦Related content

It brings out that classic rock 'n roll music video vibe.

Seeing this, I cannot help but hear MotΓΆrhead.
That may sound hideously out of place, but wait, please her me out. Or rather first hear it out from Lemmy, Ozzy and Slash:Β youtu.be/Hjp0JQn4FFE
Many people who are not familiar with metal tend to associate MotΓΆrhead with hard living, heroin and headaches. It is easy to forget how - like all metal musicians worth their salt - Lemmy was highly proficient on acoustic guitar, left a very broad musical legacy, and never viewed his more notorious, spectacular work as distinct from his softer, dreamier work with Hawkwind. After all, it was "simply rock 'n' roll".
Seeing this picture, I cannot help but wonder where they are now, forty-nine long years hence. Perhaps, with the pups long since out of the house and the grandchildren getting too big to stay with grandma and grandpa, she finds his old lowrider lovingly restored on eBay and decides to break out an early anniversary gift. And as Spring breaks to Summer they ride across the country once more - a lot stiffer in the joints than last time, with sagging curves and balding tails, crossing a landscape dotted with derelict NMT towers and flanked by SUV:s on the road - but no matter how changed still there, still very much alive, as long as health allows.
Certainly there is a sense of nostalgia here: To many people the 1960's are a time of mythology, Woodstock a name associated with mystique and ancient ritual - but for just as many they are only small parts of much longer stories, some of them very much ongoing. Perhaps there is less time left before it is time to join the wolfpack in the sky, but there is certainly no looking back; as then, there is only here and now, with wind on the muzzle and flowers in the hair.
Simply rock 'n' roll.

Thank you so much! The song choice you picked is a fitting tribute too-I have thought of maybe doing another paining of them riding with their children-the elderly couple is a sweet idea too! Β Β

This picture you've done of these characters going on a motorcycle ride in the countryside together looks very nice for sure, my friend.

Thank you so much! It was my first try at drawing a 1960's motorcycle-it's not accurate, but at least it moves! Β
