Description
Full title: "Mellotronia; Organ-Fountain and Grotto"
Oil on canvas. 20"x24".
Certain kinds of slow, moody and tranquil electronic keyboard music to me, sound like I'm in a water garden on another planet. There is no other way to describe it. Particularly, mellotron music with its slight warble, reminds me of fountains and strange water plants in my mind.
The organ-fountain in this painting is based on the one from the Villa de Este in Italy. To me, this is what a mellotron can sort of sound like at times, especially the way Rick Wakeman played it on 'Close to the Edge'.

Yeah, the choice of color pigments for the sculptures in this painting definitely have more of a real life man molded material basis compared to some of your other paintings.
