A watercolor illustration from one of my books for kids, and some wood art that I turned into pictures for another of my books for kids. Drawings, paintings, my younger daughter’s name carved into painted wood. Conan and Lord of the Rings. You know, my art.
This time I tried to play guitar and sing along with Led Zeppelin… the guitar worked okay, but I kept getting interrupted with the singing.
Look, I know this is silly, and I don’t even sound that great, but who doesn’t want to get invited up on stage to jam with some big name rock bands? I never will, but I still got to play guitar and sing with the Stones. And now that I know how to do this, I can do more of it.
I think of it like Dancing With The Stars, the tv show. I don’t have to be good, I just have to have fun.
So, uh, this is another song from way back in the day, salvaged from those old cassette tapes I found… (Google it, kids)… and I slapped together a video for you to watch while you listen, from a picture of me when I was not much older than when I wrote that song.
If you don’t know who she is… or who he is, Google them, so you know how funny this idea is.
Where to start… well, a picture I did of me and my wife, before she was my wife, as barbarians, tie dye ninja, a drawing of a high school party I may have been at, and a bunch of weird stuff where I cut my head out of old photos and stuck them in things… like Civil War paintings, and a dinosaur’s mouth, a multimedia me as a pirate using ink, paint, glitter and real things cut out of a pirate article, and one gratuitous Conan picture I drew and mounted on wood, with him running from a rockslide.
It is funny how much of my art includes me… unless you know me… HA!
So, I found some old cassette tapes, and I am recording them onto my laptop. The sound quality is bad, because I recorded these on tape way back in the day.
This first one is me and my friend Brian. We are just noodling around, me on the guitar and him on the harmonica. I am singing, but not real words. Oh, and I added the silly video, just to have something to look at while you listen. That is me and Brian, back when were very young, and more than a little crazy.
So, yeah, the Na Na song.
A pirate skeleton painted with t-shirt paint and oil paint on wood, drawings cut out and mounted on wood, oil painting, Photoshop, a few Conan pictures, and Death Dealer. Just art I have done over the years.
