about

Housecatnick writes and sings about his "other life": being a fine art painter.

lyrics

When Mary talks she loves her paintings
When Mary paints she starts to love
When Mary cries her brushstrokes start rhyming
What Mary paints she’ll think of

Another place to escape another time to think of
Though she’s tried to create
Something she’s already lost
She would smile and tell me stories
About Picasso and Gaugin
And through the night she won’t feel weary
“cuz all her muses help guide her own hand

What Mary sees are her paintings
What Mary paint sees is her world
Mary dreams her spirit starts lifting
Mary paints what she has learned

Tries to lead us to this place A place that’s never been found
As we wonder through her dream space
I feel her muse start spinning around
And she’d smile and tell you stories
About Picasso and Gaugin
And through the night she won’t feel weary
“cuz all her muses help guide her own hand

When Mary paints she feels her freedom
When Mary paints she is Mary
