After the commercial Album `Echoes of Love` it was about time to release another free song. `Divine Painting` experiments with
lounge, classic and rock
and combines electronic instruments
with orchestral elements like strings and oboe.

About the song
The composition is a free float,
done out of the moment without any pre-concept
and When the music was completed,
I was reminded to a remarkable story:
Did you know ?
In ancient times lived Japanese monks
painting with their hairs.
Why with the hairs ?
It was not some sort of avant-garde
like it might be used nowadays
to make the painter more interesting,
more special,
to profile the ego.
It was quite the opposite ...
While meditating day in day out
they became so deeply touched by
everything surrounding them,
they did not accept to have a brush
between their body and the canvas
when expressing art.
They became so full, so overwhelmed by the divine,
so ecstatic by vicinity and the immanent deity,
something nonrecurring was needed to express it.
When not accepting a brush,
they could have done it with the hands right ?
They could,
but this was not appropiate to express
what needs to be expressed.
When painting with hands
an intention is involved to give the picture a form.
Even painting abstract is a form,
a non-form by will power.
When painting with hairs you cannot control the outcome,
you don`t know what will be on the canvas as a result.
Every throw of colours with hairs is unique
and cannot be repeated in the same way.
It cannot be corrected.
They have been known as divine artists,
divine painters, mad and ecstatic.
The structure of the song reminded me
to this story
and so I decided to consign a musical memorandum
of this ancient remarkable painters.
`Divine Painting` is dedicated to those monks.
I know it`s a bit late to support them
with headbanging passages in the music ...
aren`t there any divine painters out there ?
