My new offering is made in light of the massive effect "Sunny Afternoon" has had on me. My reinvigorated love of The Kinks has led me to create a caricature portrait of the Davies brothers,this is the pencil rough. The two (in younger incarnations) are fighting amid a tattered Union Jack whilst their older selves look on in wry amusement. That the older Ray stands behind the younger Dave, and vice versa, is a comment on the perspective of age...or not, as the case may be.
My daughter Grace has tickets for she and I to see Ray live, in August, and I cannot wait. His legendary prowess with both word and melody will transport me...I'm sure. Hopefully a reunion of the remaining band members won't be too far away.
Guys, thank YOU for the days.
Excelsior out!
