As long as you get paid. The rest is window dressing. As long as you have a copy and can use it to promote New ventures.

Oh, and to be proud of your work. It's not all about pounds and shillings. But it helps

Thanks Don and Terra! It was one of my better jobs. Jackson has contacted me and sent me this link to the single. He is a busy dude.
This is a sample, they want you to sign up to hear the whole song. The art posted is a thumbnail too, but I will get a better image of it posted here somehow now that it is released.

miles I went on the free version of Spotify. The artwork is simply stunning. Well done you. On the train home from work so not heard the music yet. If it's as good as your art then it's a sure fire hit.

Thanks for sharing, miles! I look forward to seeing the complete image! As usual, your creations inspire my guesses about the story behind them.

Thanks! I have heard a good part of the album. As I said earlier, I have a limited ability to evaluate contemporary music. I know these guys are serious and I hope they do find the golden ticket.

I just realised that I'm getting a slight Psonic Psunspot vibe!

Beautiful, miles. The people I showed your site to are in awe! You're lucky to be able to make a living off your art and passions. I'm pretty sure the rest of us regulars are earning our living as drones. Admiring your lifestyle and your oeuvre is truly a vicarious pleasure!

I'm pretty sure the rest of us regulars are earning our living as drones. Admiring your lifestyle and your oeuvre is truly a vicarious pleasure! You are too kind. As careers go, it has been spotty. One of my running jokes is that my superpower is living on almost no money. Until sales picked up again anyway. My wife had a job she hated in the early days, that was the regular income. Over time things improved, but feeding the rainy day account was always a priority. We have 20 year old car and I hope it goes another 10. I am really lucky, but I also had such a manically strong (and irrational) belief in my work that I persevered when someone with common sense would have taken the day job, and painted on weekends. Stubborn, I guess. Another concept of mine is the God Of Just Enough. They give you just enough to keep going, and when things seemed hopeless a number of times, that check or ray of hope appeared.

Thanks Don It has been a charmed life. I just don't want to leave the impression it's all unicorns and rainbows. Thanks Terra and Mare for your appreciation of my work

Miles, the bigger picture is lovely! That is some pretty scary looking space the astronaut is having a float in. Is the space traveler male, female, possibly even child? Gender non-specific? I get a child vibe, but since the Universe is so huge, it may just be perspective driven. I love your versions of everything, from Space to Nature to Faraway Fantasy Lands. It's all good! Thank you for sharing with us!
