Emotion

One to relax to.  At the end of the album this song comes on and helps you get down at the end.  It works well in that position.  Head over to this silly youtube video if you want to hear it.

When I first listened to the album in full, (to quickly jot down ideas for each song) I didn’t really have any images in my mind for this one, just wavy layered bands of colour.  Almost like a cloud.  As I sat down to do it however, it grew slightly and I couldn’t disassociate Mark Rothko form what I was imagining.  So the cloud of colour grew into separate bands of colour.  In fact I took a few days to eventually finish this one as I kept coming back to it and going over it again and again with a new layer of colour until I finally had the colours as right as I could get them.  It wasn’t until the very end that I added the orange outline.  In fact where I work I have a orange ‘feature wall’ (meaning it was painted a different colour than all the rest - not exactly what you would call a ’feature’ really.  A real feature wall would have all sorts of things, a built in library, climbing wall section, taps where cold drinks would come out of, a pet feeding station, a range of the latest magazines, your email, some sculptures … and so on).

So anyway, I realised the orange wall was actually working very well with the picture so I stuck it in there as well.

The other thing to note is this was probably the only song on the album which I left on repeat while doing the picture and I never felt the urge to stop it.  I try to do with all of the songs, but understandably they drive me nuts after about the 6th time round and I rip the ear phones out of my head moments before I loose my mind.  It never happend with this one!

So here it is anyway.  Hope you like it. 

And here it is on ebay as well.  This time starting at $3 since my listing fees are about that and the first couple of these sold for $1 only which means I’m about $2 behind.  I don’t mind giving them away, but I can’t afford to buy them away!!  Ok so this one didn’t sell either.  If you want it just drop me $20 and I’ll send it to you.
