I"m interested in what's going on in the back of the red one's head. It seems like memories, including of cities.

'In space and clutter, they watch,
In darklight and shadow, they stare,
In detail and chaos, they remain aloof,
Neither god, demon nor mortal,
They create
What we see,
What we don't'.
I wish this were larger, because it's gorgeous.

Thank you very much! Although there must be 10,000's of paintings you haven't seen yet!

Yes, I'm sure that's very true - but I'm not so sure that seeing them all would change my opinion of this one. I really do love it that much! Something about it just moves me on the very deepest level and awakens very intense emotions in me.
Hahaha, like I said: madly in love with this painting

Well, that is extremely kind, thank you very much. I hope it doesn't sound conceited but it is a painting that every time I pass, I stop and look at, even though I painted it over 20 years ago. I get bored of other paintings I've done, but not that one.

You're very welcome!
I don't think that's conceited at all; there are some things that just speak to the human soul and I sincerely believe this is one of those things. We all long to feel less alone in the universe, and this painting represents that feeling which is ancestral and subconscious in all of us. One is drawn to it by a deep and unexplainable yearning for the pure euphoria and oneness that you've depicted here; something that is impossible for us to feel otherwise until that moment. I think it's very natural to feel pulled toward this painting - you've done an incredible thing here!

Thank you.
Here are the lyrics that inspired me, 24 years ago!
All of my hope, and my inspiration
I drew from you
Our lifeΒ΄s
patternΒ΄s
drawn in sand
But the winds could not erase
The memory of your face
Deep in the night
Plying very strange cargo
Our soul-ships pass by
Solo trips to the stars - in the sky
Gliding so far
That the eye cannot follow
Where do they go
WeΒ΄ll never know

Amazing! I can clearly see the parallels between the 2; may I ask where those lyrics are from?
As a side note, I find it interesting how relevant and fresh your painting remains even after 20 some-odd years; goes to show how universal such emotions are.

I wrote them.
No really, they are by Roxy Music.
Thank you for that, I do agree but don't like to be big-headed so I won't elaborate on why!
