I don't want the viewer to be able to peel away the layers of my painting like the layers of an onion and find that all the blues are on the same level.
Other effects in the show included models of the ships which were extremely expensive to make. We used to do our shots in front of a blue screen and they'd put the effects on after.
For me, the summer will be pure gray - mother-of-pearl gray, very pale gray. To me, this is the big statement for summer. Then we have light blue, light turquoise, lots of pink.
There are so many issues in our oceans - like the near extinction of blue fin tuna - that should be taken more seriously worldwide.
Picasso had his pink period and his blue period. I am in my blonde period right now.
AC/DC is a prime example of taking that blues rock thing and just living in that world. They only really move the furniture around a little on each album, but it still works.
I have a huge rib cage, which is why I can hold a note out until I'm blue in the face... because I have such a big lung capacity.

You might be a redneck if... the blue book value of your truck goes up and down depending on how much gas it has in it.
When I made Blue Moon Swamp, there was a lot of trial and error; I was trying to find people who would be simpatico with my style, and with what I had in mind for the album.
