Folks:

I sent out a couple of email notes to all Picasso participants over the weekend... so please check your spam filters if you did not receive it!

Rock on!

One last song!

This makes 5 acts of 3 songs each.

If anyone wants to do this, speak now!  Again, I prefer new participants as every song so far has been a different person...



Self-Portrait

I wanted to draw a picture
of all that's behind these eyes
but instead my face was a sheild
if only to buy me some time

Am I worth more than a thousand words?
I've stepped outside of the frame
My life has become my surroundings
No two see exactly the same

Now that it's all laid out
my portrait is solely for me
I can move freely about
and paint what I want it to be.




This song will flow into Joie de Vivre.
It could be short.

Hoping to get a taker on this.

Check out the opera to date if you are wondering what this is about:

I prefer to open it to someone who has yet to be involved, as diversity has been the key to this project... if no one new bites, I'll think of you.

I could tackle it if you want new blood... but a few questions. Should I listen to the before/after piece and try to connect the dots, or is it a more of a do whatever and see how it fits later type of piece?


I've heard a few of the songs that have been posted and am very impressed.

Up until now they have been done independently (as far as I know).

There is nothing wrong with trying to connect the dots, though.  Basically whatever inspires you.

I will PM you a link.

I've started on an idea I think will work. But it's just an idea right now. It needs some work. I'll respond to your PM with a question or two more. Thanks for doing this, and thanks to all the other participants.
