I like how it seems to emanate from John Lennon's eyes. The Abbey Road scene, the yellow brick road as well...Janice...Jim Morrison through the eyes of a wild mustang...At first I thought it was Elvis then changed my mind....springsteen...Bob Marley...Jerry Garcia...the hot tongue...elton john...hendrix with the symbol for the artist formerly known as Prince on his face...dylan...jagger...a Pink Floyd symbol...Eric Clapton...neil young in the cowboy hat? I love how the elements dissolve into each other.

How old is your son? He should post his art online. I help edit a print literary magazine, and we would publish something this cool.
