Liberated, Escape

I get a great liberating feeling looking at ddd2a, one of John Squire's latest artworks. John Squire was the guitar player and songwriter for The Stone Roses, one of my all-time favorite bands. I have been a long-time fan of John's musical talents. I had the pleasure and privilege of meeting John back in 1998 at Goldfingers in Hollywood. I usually don't get starstruck, but this one time meeting someone that I admire was a very special and surreal experience.

The more I look at John Squire's art creations, the bigger fan of his art talents I become. His Jackson Pollock-inspired paintings graced the covers of most of the Stone Roses album and single releases. (By the way, did you know that you could paint like Jackson Pollock too?) John Squire has held two recent exhibitions in London and Manchester in the past several months. He is also selling prints of his artwork on his art website JohnSquireArt.com. Hmmm...maybe it's time for me to start saving for a copy of either ddd2a or Double Dorsal Doppleganger...or maybe of both.
