The Hook

John Lee Hooker - American blues legend. "Boom boom boom boom, I'm gonna shoot you right down, right offa your feet. Take you home with me, put you in my house. Boom boom boom boom." Somehow John, my aim hasn't been that true. Been feeling black and bluer than usual lately, which has prompted a revisit to the music of the blues. Hooker, Howlin, Muddy, Billie, Louis and many others are the soundtrack of my life these days. This piece was done several years ago, when I was selling many paintings of this style. Although the original is hanging at a law firm in Century City (thank you very much), prints of 'The Hook' and many others are available at www.artwanted.com/knewart

MEDIUM: Watercolor on paper, 50" x 40" (original)
