Thank you very much for your magnanimous comment! Thanks also for the β€œWaiting for Godot Group” Fav! I really appreciate it! I was inspired to do this series of paintings by seeing Sir Ian McKellan and Patrick Stewart in a production of the play! They were brilliant! I sent photos of my paintings to them and got lovely letters back saying how much they admired them and how I had captured the spirit of the play and a bit of Theatrical History! As you can imagine, I was really pleased! Keep on Creating! Cheers!

Wow... amazing! I read Godot and saw the production with Nathan Lane and Bill Irwin as Estragon and Vladimir, respectively - I could really sense the hopelessness and weariness of the situation from your drawing.

I've also noticed the pseudo-crucifixion pose Lucky's putting on, with Didi and Gogo as the two thieves... or am I just reading too much into it?

No, I'm sure you're right about the Faux Crucifixion pose! Have you checked out my other canvasses of Godot in my Gallery? It was great to have the actors reply and comment on my work! Cheers!

Thanks! I sent a photo to the Actors involved and Simon Callow replied, saying that my work was now an historical document as they decided to change his coat from red to green, three weeks into the play's run! He also thanked me for the quality of work! Cheers!

This is AMAZING. I'm serious Ian, you REALLY deserve more attention on here! Next time I write a journal I'll feature this.
You have worked so hard on this and it really shows! Well done, and keep up the incredible work!

I just composed a VERY sincere and heartfelt reply to your comment on "Godot" and proceeded to send it...to myself! What a plonker!! Thanks for your positive comment and support! You KNOW how much it means to me! I said that we have BOTH been working very hard and we are both justifyingly proud of our work! I thanked you for your kind offer to feature my work and said that not too many people in DA were aware of me! As usual you anticipated this in your comment! Thanks again, Becky, keep on Creatin' Cheers!

I bought tickets to see Bob Dylan next week for me and a few friends. I believe it's the last night of his tour aswell, which should add an extra sparkle to the evening

I very rarely use this hyped up word but that is AWESOME!! I'm sure you will rnjoy the Legend! We had some friends of a certain vintage who called their band "The Zimmermen"! Cheers, and thanks again, I'll take a look! I finally made it back, as I went to our village shop for some Blak and Greens chocolate for my wife who's working on something REALLY complicated on her Mac!

The tickets were a bargin in the center of the arena, which makes it all the more awesome. I'm hoping he'll do some Willbury's tracks too, but that's asking a lot.
