Love it! Also my favorite Troubadour. I guess I need to be more verbose, ( I have to use 100 words! HA) so as a piece of art it is thoughtful, reflective of what I know about the man and your technique is very good. As usual your metaphors make it yours and I find it interesting you have him kneeling in the forest, where I think of him as more urbane. Hmm. Wonder why there is a 100 word minimum?? Twenty more words, now sixteen, now fourteen, now twelve. Oh well I am a man of few words Love Lou

Dear Flori, I truly hope you have a wonderful time. It is a bit of a joke in my country that as he has made 3 last final tours and I hope for his fans he makes a few more. I very much like the old and young versions of himself in the same drawing, very much like old is reflecting back on events when he was young. If I knew more about Leonard Cohen’s work I probably would understand the importance of the handcuffs :).

...Thank You deeply for Your lovely comment,my dearest Allen:iconkissmote:..
Well,yes,You have to knoz about his songs,to understnd the little symbols I integrated in this drawing,the heart with the bird and the handcuffs are actually on the cover of one of his albums,called "the future",in this very album,there is special song,named"light as a breeze",I particularily adore,it's very sensual,tlking about certain "bracelets":blush:,bu other than that,he is also singing in lots of other songs of prison,wars,and his juddish(juewish)origines...
