This is just excellent. I love Amy Winehouse, and that painting captures her beautifully. I imagine the pianist is playing one of her songs, and looking at her for approval. As someone else said, it has the sense of Edward Hopper, and also reflects the inner loneliness of Amy’s life.
When a photo starts to make you imagine events in the scene, you just know you have got it right.
Best wishes from England. Pete.
Hi Pete…and thanks for your nice and thoughtful comment! The tragic life of this wonderful and talented woman is very moving… So I got the idea of this picture… I’m really pleased you like it! Thanks again and have a great weekend! Josephine.
I have been following your website for quite some time and agree with others that it has some of the most extraordinary shots I have ever seen. I am in Schwabisch Hall at the moment. Any chance we could meet over the next week somewhere?
This composition is amazing. The drinks behind the bar. Amy Winehouse on the wall,
The coated figure at the piano – even the floor tiles. Love the yellow and magenta highlights. I vote you my most favourite artist that I have seen on WordPress!
Hi….and thank you very much for this wonderful feedback!! Such a response to my work is so important for me…you give me a lot of motivation! Thanks again!
wonderful lighting and atmosphere, I love your style – blending photo with painting. I feel the pianist is playing to the girl in the portrait hanging on the wall.
Love this, I like the way it makes you wonder that ..is he playing to nobody or is there some one to the right out of sight…or can he be looking around to see if he can pull a crowd…you can go lots of places with this ….love it. and beautifully done…as usual.
…I’m not really sure how it goes. But it’s sad and it’s sweet and I knew it complete, when I wore a younger
mans clothes…
Beautiful image, thank you. Caroline

The pianist plays for the lady in the picture. He reaches into the keys, she brings herself into the picture.
