Poetry and artwork - Henry Denander

Roy Hargrove (1969-2018).

Jazz trumpeter and composer, and with a beautiful sound on his flugelhorn. Such a shame, he was only 49 years old.

My portrait in water color and pen on paper, size 25x36 cm (10x14").

This one is for Jonas Kullhammar.

Somewhere down the fantasy coast, at a place where the Ministry of Culture doesn't have to approve how you build and paint your houses.

Water color and pen and ink, size 25x36 cm (10x14").

From memory, my take on Mr. Koukoudakis' grocery store, on the street leading down to the port. Today the shop is run by the family and still a beautiful place but more modern. I remember we bought our first lemon tree here, twenty years ago. Koukoudakis delivered it on his boat from the mainland.

Watercolor, pen and ink on heavy 600g paper. Size 29x38 cm (11.5x15 ")

Yesterday we had snow here outside Stockholm. It's all melting now and we get the lovely brown mudlike feeling.

Here's a watercolor with some different colors.

Happy Birthday Bengt Kirschon, 60 years young today! Playing his guitar in the Swedish band Madhouse.

He's also an ordinary member of the legendary poker dice club John Wesley Hardin Memorial Club.

One more somewhat abstract painting I did on Hydra last month, with some Greek colors. And the man walking to the ferry with his suitcase. Why didn't he let a donkey carry the heavy suitcase?
