Artist's Comments

Inspired by 'Lie in Our Graves' by Dave Matthews Band.

'When I step into the light
my arms are open wide.
When I step into the light
my eyes searching wildly."

My favorite song....ever.
I was lucky enough to be in the 11th row on 9.11.05 (Red Rocks) when they played it. :D


It's a goal of mine to give the original to Dave himself... Someday, maybe it will happen. :)

EDIT>>>Updated with a brand new and very much improved scan!!! :)



MAJOR UPDATE>>> I gave this piece to Dave on 5.31.06 at Sandstone Amphitheatre in Bonner Springs, KS. It was a spectacular moment and I will never ever forget how special it was when he motioned for me to come over so that it could be passed along by a security guard. Thank you Bama Works for the 4th row tickets, thank you DMB, and a HUGE thank you to Dave himself. You rock my world!

Thanks!! :)
And yeah...that song ~always~ makes me feel good. It just....I don't know. There's something about it that's very spiritual and simple. I wish more people would appreciate simplicity...

What am I talking about? haha....I'm going to start rambling. God knows you don't want that! hahaha

Thank you very much! :D

It's a thing I'll never forget (the awesomeness of the giving, that is).

Wonderful! It looks like a photo! Very good photo!
You're lucky to give it to him (though I'm ashamed to tell you I don't know him... But I can imagine it.)

This is still my favorite piece. It just holds so much meaning for me.

Well, if you're interested in hearing Dave Matthews Band, I can ask a friend to host some songs and send a link for you to download them. :)
