Artist explanation: This small book documents a journey of discovery that began late one night on a ferry boat party in Sausalito, CA. Seeking escape from a dull party, I found refuge in a late night wine haze and the somber sounds of a solo piano. That was the first time I heard the Moonlight Sonata, but it was enough to move me to explore the music of Beethoven. Some time later, I decided to try and interpret the music visually. What follows are images that attempt to capture the feeling of his music. Call them, then, visual inspiration. (for additional images: www.deanart.com/paint.html)
