Just the Two of US is a 12x12 x 1.75 inch original mixed media painting on canvas. This painting is inspired by the beautiful 1981 song of the same title by Bill Withers. It features two bright birds flying above the world on an adventure together. The painting includes lyrics and sheet music from the song, and you can see them peeking through the paint and bits of collage paper. I listened to the song while painting and took my cue from them for this composition. (sides are painted neutral gray to match the piece)
Some of the lyrics:
I see the crystal raindrops fall
And the beauty of it all
Is when the sun comes shining through
To make those rainbows in my mind
When I think of you sometime
And I wanna spend some time with you
And the beauty of it all
Is when the sun comes shining through
To make those rainbows in my mind
When I think of you sometime
And I wanna spend some time with you
Just the two of us
We can make it if we try
Just the two of us
(Just the two of us)
Just the two of us
Building castles in the sky
Just the two of us
You and I
We can make it if we try
Just the two of us
(Just the two of us)
Just the two of us
Building castles in the sky
Just the two of us
You and I
