‘A Requiem for Donald’ is for musician and writer, Donald Hall, who was my closest friend for nearly 40 years. We worked in the theatre together in the early 80’s, Donald as a music director, myself as a designer/scenic artist. He lived a simple life, sans internet, mobile phone and the rest, was solely devoted to music, writing and intellectual pursuits, he was a beautiful influence on many people. During his last 3 months I was his full-time carer, and he would often play the piano as I prepared our dinner. This painting, developed from sketches made whilst listening to him and some reference photos of when he was just gathering energy to play, sitting in his red music room in his perennial saffron shawl, was painted about 3 months after he died, when the delayed shock would no longer let me sleep. Doing this painting plus organising a small poetry and musical performance in front of it for his close friends was somewhat healing.
