Happy Birthday to David Bowie

Happy Birthday to David Bowie who turns 66 today!


T. Renner, "Weeping Wall," 2010, acrylic on paper, 6" x 4".


T. Renner, "Warszawa," 2010, acrylic on paper, 4" x 6".


T. Renner, "Art Decade," 2010, acrylic on paper, 4" x 6".


T. Renner, "Subterraneans, 2010, acrylic on paper, 4" x 6".

These four paintings were made in response to the four lyric-less pieces on David Bowie's album Low. In 2010, I had been reading Hugo Wilcken's 33 1/3 book on the making of Low and set out to try to capture some of the feeling of the songs.
