“This piece is Ian Curtis, not so new, I did it in the fall, the worst live painting experience I’ve ever had. It’s the only time in 10 years I was prevented from finishing a piece. I had to add that yellow after, and I would have done a darker blue, but I kind of liked the simplicity and lightness of the whole piece, so I left it. I donated it for auction to an event here on the anniversary of his death called Grey Sunday, a tribute to Joy Division, and the proceeds were given to a suicide prevention hotline. I have no idea how much it went for, the event was kind of depressing so I left early.”
