Inspiration:
This
is a tribute to the superb 'On The Threshold Of A Dream' album created
in 1969.
'The
Dream Realised' was initially inspired by Bob Purcell of Soundhouse
Records in Leamington Spa.
The image sees the band walking amongst their fans in the confines
of an ancient ampitheatre.
A surreal setting sees the Egyptian pyramids beyond
and a temple on the hill emitting the melodic tunes of the Moody
Blues.
Some
of the lyrics from 'The Promise' album by Mike Pinder are an inspiration
to the creation of the painting.
The
original painting was donated to a Childrens Charity Raffle in California,
USA 1997.
See
'One Creative Step Beyond' by Nancy C Lookbaugh in the 'Have You
Heard' newsletter,
'The Friends of Mike Pinder' Quarter 1 1997 issue no 9.
Also featured in issue 24 of Moodymania, September 18th 1996.
