Limited edition of 10, other sizes available
Part of my 500 piece Ink Drawing series, produced mostly between ca. 1990 and 2005.
A combination of personal, media, and historical impressions.
Drawn with Writing Ink ... like Visual Letters to myself ... a kind of Visual Diary.
A selection of these drawings was first exhibited at the Academy of Design in Budapest, Hungary in 1996, in a show called "Connections" (named after the Rolling Stones song I was then playing with my band). The curator was from Hamburg, and as he was viewing my drawings at his home, became a visit from ERRO, the Icelandic Pop Artist, who immediately expressed his enthusiasm, and especially liked this self-portrait and my "Empty Elvis" sub-series of these ink drawings.

has been for sale for some time, as you have seen.
