Peter and the Flute

It's the mix of epic storytelling, twelve string guitars, mellotron and flute that do it for me...

The first in a series of vintage Genesis illustrations.

Pen and ink on bristol board with digital colour.

'Stagnation' can be heard on the band's second album 'Trespass' circa 1970.

Wait, there is still time for washing in the pool,
wash away the past.
Moon, my long-lost friend is smiling from above,
smiling at my tears.
Come, we'll walk the path to take us to my home,
keep outside the night.
The ice-cold knife has come to decorate the dead,
somehow.
