A new hanger and clock

A little girl hanger that I painted a couple of days ago, made more exciting by being placed on the cover of Stephen Banham's fantastic book, Characters, which I am looking forward to reading from cover to cover.  Congratulations too on your beautiful photos Warren Kirk -- if you are reading this!

A new tattoo clock: a tiger becoming a mermaid with a bird looking on.  Years ago, my friend Steven's big brother got a tattoo on his left pec, based on an Italian cassette cover of mine which showed a modest snake and face arrangement painted on a woman's bottom.  He decided to get some more, and by the time he finished (has he finished?) my inspirational cassette was sadly indistinguishable from the swirl of pictures surrounding it.  Maybe this clock is an homage to Muz, and the moment when things began to go awry.
And here is some music to help you ponder that.
