"I
took pictures of bits of my clothing then I spun them into
the computer. I started painting them with the colour brushes,
and mixed it up to that.
I
love colours off the computer, I love them, the glow is so
great. I swim in those colours…" |
|
"Firstly
I painted the black and white image, then filled the colours
in, and put the clobber in. That picture is meant to represent
the story of my life musically.
Actually,
the whole thing originated from a picture board I had done
with pictures of some of my clothes on it. There’s a
picture of me in very early Pistols, staying all the way through
PiL." |
