It's Only Rock and Roll, 20x24, acrylic on canvas SOLD One of the most rewarding aspects of showing your artwork are the stories you collect . The Water Towers that I paint never fail to bring out a mad tale of highschool pranks, dares and vandalism. This particular painting was inspired by a story I was told by my friend Tony. The water tower in his home town faced the high school and Tony and a friend bravely ascended the ladder to the top to write" It's Only Rock N' Roll" on it's face. Tony was painting "It's only" while his pal was in charge of "Rock N'Roll" - I'll assume they were in a hurry as his friend forgot the " 'N" and for the rest of their highschool years the Water Tower read, "It's Only Rock Roll".
If you have water tower stories to share please send them along to madcraftshoppe@hotmail.com
many posts and new work to come this weekend, all the best
