Another painting give away...in Bratislava
Michal Kascak of Pohoda agency asked me if I would paint live during Swell Season/Longital gig in Divadlo Arena in Bratislava, Slovakia last Friday...so of course I did. Quite a large number of people put their name down to win the piece that I titled 'Friendship Angels'and then after all the musical action, Vetron won.Pictures above. Yay for making people happy.

Pohoda Festival 2010 pt 1
It all started by an orchestra and a choir playing the national anthems of all the countries performing at the festival...some arranged in a real funky way.
Bez Ladu a Skladu. The singer Michal Kascak is the organizer of the Pohoda Festival, it was a real treat to see them play again...
I only catched the end of the set by Jose Gonzalez, but it was such beautiful to listen to what I managed to hear.
Klaxons rocked it real well on Friday night.
These fares were all over the airport...all sorts
