This
drawing is named
"Prediction", because I had no real idea of why or what
I was drawing during the time I was working on it. The
following day however, I received unexpectedly in the post,
a letter from a very good friend whom I hadn't seen or heard
from for approximately 10 years. His letter contained a
picture like the envelope in the drawing, and the letter
contained details of a
television show he had just made about his art
work, and the connection in
his work with ships and submarines.
You
will notice in the above drawing the light coming in through
a round window on the right which looks like a
'Porthole' on a ship! My friend's name is Tom
McKendrick, -- a very fine artist and friend who also
was the drummer in one of the first bands I played in as a
teenager. We were called the "ALLSORTS"
because of the varied and wierd music we created. I think we were the very first
'Punk Rock' group long before the phrase was coined.
Some
times our singer and bass player would fight on
stage and once, the bass
player stubbed a
cigarette out in the singers face in the middle of a song! Sometimes, his
false front teeth would
fly from his mouth while
singing wildly, and occassionally some of us would be
physically sick on
stage. I remember our bass
player, "Stuart Morrison" threatening members of the
audience by making signs to
signify that he was going to
cut someones throat after
he had finished playing! Another night I saw one of our
members urinating behind one
of the speaker cabinets in
the middle of our session on stage!
Of course, this was all
years before the "Sex Pistols" had even been thought of!
