Canned Heat had a song called, 'It's the same all over' back in the day. For some reason that tune kept bouncing around in my head while I was drawing this, hence the shortened title. This is a 9 by 6 inches gel pen with color pencil drawing on medium bond acid-free paper. Original Jones Art is afraid that it truly is the same all over while nesting in northwest Austin, Texas.

I can't imagine, Charles, that the melody of a song gave you an inspiration to create this interesting image

Artist Reply: If you've drawn out stuff for as long as I have, Anony, you start running on muscle memory. Hmm. Maybe I should listen to Elephant's Memory also. :)

Ha!Ha! Ha! Funny self time!’

Artist Reply: Mark, I seem to have a surfeit of 'self time' lately. Now, if I were mobile maybe I'd be 'Going Up The Country.' You just never know. Hope you are doing great or better than average, at least. :)

Canned Heat was a totally underrated group ... Love the green here and the somewhat stern look on his face Hope you're having a relaxing labor day weekend Charles : )

Artist Reply: They are supposed to be still together but after Blind Owl and Bear passed, I lost interest. Like a lot of 'old' groups, some permutation continues just to make a little money instead of new music. I'm always in relax mode these days, Dave. Be safe and enjoy the moment. :)

A great expressionist art piece Charles and a very happy Labor day to you and your family!!

Artist Reply: Thanks, Mark! The only family here is my friendly neighborhood arachnid I've named Gurtie. She doesn't laugh at my jokes and feigns total indifference. Well, not exactly feigns. Hope all is good where you are. :)

Canned heat has that effect some people including moi;D have a happy Labor Day Charles

Artist Reply: Yeah, I had all their LP's at one time, Ray. They taught me how to boogie, uh, so to speak. You have a safe yet fun time yourself. :)
