Description
A Psychedelic Relic from the 1970's. This was a tribute to a classic Rock & Roll band called Blue Oyster Cult. The design started with an illustration of a head with the band's name directly overhead. I kept adding random images to construct a background. Many years later I decided to have the piece framed under glass.Before framing I added a layer of circular green price stickers and blue circles (to suggest blue oysters), which I thought would unify the overall design.

As you know Doug, I thoroughly enjoy your work. I study and scrutinize each amazing piece in zoom mode. Great compositions, colors, details, and descriptions! Brilliant how your collages feel alive...and then I realize, hey, this art is looking back at me and it’s scrutinizing ME! Weird feeling, but highly enjoyable!

Thanks James ....this is one of the finest compliments ever, quite intriguing and insightful ! By the way, after you mentioned the English illustrator Arthur Rackham I looked him up because I was not familiar with his name. I quickly realized that I was familiar with his work. Over the years I had seen quite a few of his images, especially his works for Alice in Wonderland. An amazingly talented artist, certainly worthy of being an inspiration....

This is really cool. A little more subtle than some of your other works, but no less powerful. I could plop some vinyl down on the turntable and lose myself in the complexity of this image.

Thank you....this is one of the more successful images in my homemade version of Pointillism. I thought that the original image was only satisfactory, but 30 years later I spread the blue and green circles throughout the design to “homogenize “ the overall harmony. The colors are slightly muted here because I forgot to take a photograph before framing it under glass ....

Very well designed images from the past and a favorite. Mike

Thank you, Mike....I used to have quite a few of these Rock Band tributes, but most of them were sold, traded, or given away back in the Sensational Seventies, with no photos taken..
