Trippy journey, possessed cat and a mysterious cloaked musician. Yes please! Got to go full psychedelic on this illustration.

This mystical story by Dave Harlow about a musician who is working on an album at home with a cat for company. After making himself a concoction of Sleepy Time tea with cough syrup the painting on the wall comes to life and a strange hooded companion appears out of it’s forest and jams along with him.

“Understanding nothing, he resumed the bass part he’d stumbled upon. The visitor let out an ethereal cry that blossomed into a gorgeous lead melody. Once again, Charlie felt like he was hearing it more in his mind than in his ears. This went on for about an hour. Every once in a while, Charlie would loop the bass and swivel to the synthesizer, adding another textural layer. The piano loop was the steady beating heart of the piece, the visitor’s melody was the dancing spirit. Everything else was sonic pudding.”
