ABOUT THE ARTWORK
Yeah Lookin' back on the track for a little green bag Got to find just a kind or losin' my mind Out of sight in the night, out of sight in the day Lookin' back on the track gonna do it my way Out of sight in the night, out of sight in the day Lookin' back on the track gonna do it my way Lookin' back Lookin' for some happiness But there is so a loneliness to find Turn to the left turn to the right Lookin' upstairs lookin' behind Lookin' for some happiness But there is so a loneliness to find Turn to the left turn to the right Lookin' upstairs lookin' behind Lookin' back on the track for a little green bag Got to find just a kind or losin' my mind Out of sight in the night, out sight in the day Lookin' back on the track gonna do it my way Lookin' back on the track for a little little green bag Got to find just a kind or losin' my mind Lookin' for some happiness But there is so a loneliness to find Turn to the left turn to the right Lookin' upstairs lookin' behind Lookin' for some happiness But there is so a loneliness to find Turn to the left turn to the right Lookin' upstairs lookin’ behind 'Little Green Bag’ by George Baker Selection Songwriters: Hans Bouwens / Jan Visser "Little Green Bag" is a 1969 song written by Dutch musicians Jan Visser and George Baker (born Hans Bouwens), and recorded by the George Baker Selection at the band's own expense. The track was released as the George Baker Selection's debut single by Dutch label Negram, the B-side being "Pretty Little Dreamer". The track's original title was "Little Greenback", in reference to the colour of the US dollar. However, the single was given the erroneous title "Little Green Bag", which some took to be a "bag of marijuana". The "Little Green Bag" title was then retained for all subsequently released versions of the single, as well as the group's 1970 debut album, also titled Little Green Bag. The single peaked at No. 9 on the Dutch Top 40 singles chart and No. 3 in Belgium. In the United States, the single reached No. 16 in the middle of 1970 on the Cashbox chart and No. 21 on the US Billboard Top 100. In 1992, when the song was used in Quentin Tarantino's film Reservoir Dogs with song writers cited as Jan Gerbrand Visser and Benjamino Bouwens, it became an international cult classic. Also that year, the song reached No. 1 in Japan after being used in a Japanese whiskey commercial. George Baker Selection was a pop-rock band from Zaanstad, the Netherlands. Source: Wikipedia

I’m (I am?) a self-taught artist, originally from the north suburbs of Chicago (also known as John Hughes' America). Born in 1984, I started painting in 2017 and began to take it somewhat seriously in 2019. I currently reside in rural Montana and live a secluded life with my three dogs - Pebbles (a.k.a. Jaws, Brandy, Fang), Bam Bam (a.k.a. Scrat, Dinki-Di, Trash Panda, Dug), and Mystique (a.k.a. Lady), and five cats - Burglekutt (a.k.a. Ghostmouse Makah), Vohnkar! (a.k.a. Storm Shadow, Grogu), Falkor (a.k.a. Moro, The Mummy's Kryptonite, Wendigo, BFC), Nibbler (a.k.a. Cobblepot), and Meegosh (a.k.a. Lenny). Part of the preface to the 'Complete Works of Emily Dickinson helps sum me up as a person and an artist: "The verses of Emily Dickinson belong emphatically to what Emerson long since called ‘the Poetry of the Portfolio,’ something produced absolutely without the thought of publication, and solely by way of expression of the writer's own mind. Such verse must inevitably forfeit whatever advantage lies in the discipline of public criticism and the enforced conformity to accepted ways. On the other hand, it may often gain something through the habit of freedom and unconventional utterance of daring thoughts. In the case of the present author, there was no choice in the matter; she must write thus, or not at all. A recluse by temperament and habit, literally spending years without settling her foot beyond the doorstep, and many more years during which her walks were strictly limited to her father's grounds, she habitually concealed her mind, like her person, from all but a few friends; and it was with great difficulty that she was persuaded to print during her lifetime, three or four poems. Yet she wrote verses in great abundance; and though brought curiosity indifferent to all conventional rules, had yet a rigorous literary standard of her own, and often altered a word many times to suit an ear which had its own tenacious fastidiousness." -Thomas Wentworth Higginson "Not bad... you say this is your first lesson?" "Yes, but my father was an *art collector*, so…"
