Ohmigosh! Yes! Someone else who is familiar with Hitchcock's work! Such a pretty way to manifest the song!

haven't met too many people who know the song! I'm glad you enjoy the interpretation, makes me want to revisit his music again for some more inspiration.

Some of Robyn's songs that conjure strong images for me are "Cynthia Mask", "My Wife, and My Dead Wife", and "Parachutes and Jellyfish" (though that one's a bit hard to find).

mmmm chitiney!
The watercolors work really well for something like this, what with the transparency and all. Probably why you chose them 
I gotta say, I'm really digging all of this chimera action.

Woah.. so pretty. e.e I could never get watercolors to look so defined and stay in distinguishable shapes without running all over the place. xD
