Bongo Fury

Painted by myself 2007 inspired by the song by Prince - Purple Rain.
Painting is done with Bees wax using hot tools.

Yet another sad loss.

Beautiful!! Going to check out your facebook page x

Fantasic art, well done Cazz.

And indeed a sad loss.

Jeebers one of the all time greats has left the building. Its more than tragic

Ahhh - Prince - such a short life.

I got through today's papers in double quick time as I had no interest in the Queen or Victoria Wood.

However, I take my hat off to Prince for stealing the limelight in the non printed media. There's been nothing else all afternoon and evening.

Queen Victoria would...?

You know that coat of mine...

In her own way Victoria Wood was just as talented as Prince - I liked both for their unique talents.

Hi
57 is a tad on the young side!...RIP
Cheers

Both exceptional talents, of very different sorts. I'll miss them both greatly.
