There sure is rhythm in this painting, well done GXH

All that rhythm sees to be inside a person. It does come from within that joy and response to music and the physical ability to act it out.

Animated! It reminds me of some of those alphabet books for kids in which the letters anthropomorphize. This really has a dance-like shape. Very whimsical, and it looks like it went in a very different direction from your usual fine arts feel toward illustration somewhat. I would put this one in your file "Crossroads" -- just that the Devil gave the man a paintbrush rather than a guitar, though he is likely to head to the same vibe.

Yes the wild and frenzied colours and shapes do bring that music to mind

thanks Katie, not quite as elegant as your beautiful pieces, but it does have a raw energy.
