My favourite tragic love story is that of an artist and their art

Marina Abramovic meets Ulay
“Marina Abramovic and Ulay started an intense love story in the 70s, performing art out of the van they lived in. When they felt the relationship had run its course, they decided to walk the Great Wall of China, each from one end, meeting for one last big hug in the middle and never seeing each other again. at her 2010 MoMa retrospective Marina performed ‘The Artist Is Present’ as part of the show, a minute of silence with each stranger who sat in front of her. Ulay arrived without her knowing it and this is what happened.”

So the original at the Museum of Transportation in London and it was fab!
Randomly scrolling through tumblr and stopped on this and thought “hey wait a sec I RECOGNIZE THAT!” Good thing too since I spent most of my first day here in London staring at that map and trying to figure out the tube.
I painted the first wolves in 1999, when I was 8/9 years old. Long before Deviantart, and still before neopets. When I was drawing just for fun, and because of the memories associated with it, the painting is very special to me.
But it’s butt ugly. The right is what I was trying to paint.
I love doing these things.
