        Great idea Colin. Can you paint it for me too. lol

        I guess I just couldn’t get in the mood this month, but looking forward to seeing what everyone else does. Maybe this time everyone should post the painting first and then the description at the bottom so we can try to guess the song.

        Works for me. :)

            Ok, but I don’t think anyone will guess mine.:lol:

                Oh dear! I showed mine to family and friends and they guessed it straightaway! I just don’t seem to project an alluring mystique…:(

                I’m afraid you’ll know mine immediately!!!:lol:
                Not subtle at all:lol:

                    Everybody (except one very young relative of Susie’s) guessed mine first rattle out of the box. But, then, I hadn’t gone for mystification :)

                        I wonder whether any of us have done the same song? What are the odds?

                            looking forward to seeing these! It’s already been the 21st for 9 hours over here, but I’ll wait before posting…

                                The odds are good that no one did the same song.
                                My paintings look like the songs but musical tastes are very different.
                                I can’t wait to see everyone’s works….it should be fun!

                                When you’re weary, feeling small
                                When tears are in your eyes
                                I’ll dry them all, I’m on your side
                                Oh when times get rough
                                And friends just can’t be found
                                Like a bridge over troubled water
                                I will lay me down

                                            I have somewhat of a “different” taste in music, so I doubt the song will be recognized by anyone.

                                                Tuscany – what a lovely scene, great depth!

                                                Attalus, this is a fun scene, goes very well with the song!

                                                    My first one a thoughtful little song as relevant today as it was in 1978 when released.

                                                    The Trees
                                                    By Rush

                                                    There is unrest in the forest
                                                    There is trouble with the trees
                                                    For the maples want more sunlight
                                                    And the oaks ignore their pleas

                                                    The trouble with the maples
                                                    And they’re quite convinced they’re right
                                                    They say the oaks are just too lofty
                                                    And they grab up all the light

                                                    But the oaks can’t help their feelings
                                                    If they like the way they’re made
                                                    And they wonder why the maples
                                                    Can’t be happy in their shade?

                                                    There is trouble in the forest
                                                    And the creatures all have fled
                                                    As the maples scream ‘oppression!’
                                                    And the oaks, just shake their heads

                                                    So the maples formed a union
                                                    And demanded equal rights
                                                    ‘The oaks are just too greedy
                                                    We will make them give us light’

                                                    Now there’s no more oak oppression
                                                    For they passed a noble law
                                                    And the trees are all kept equal
                                                    By hatchet,
                                                    Axe,
                                                    And saw
