Some Comments:

• Wanted everything about this painting to be wrong or uncomfortable

• The “sun” is smaller than Take Off – the desired effect was that a squeeze was being put on the core – like a severe tension band head ache

• Thin and scraggly silver rays droop under the weight of unknown gravity

• The staff, like the sun, is squeezed into a smaller space. The length of the staff is necessarily compressed, and so are the spaces between the lines of the staff.

• The corners of the staff spill out into space 

• The clef and the time signature – at the beginning of the staff - are the only things that seem normal. All the following notation becomes progressively unintelligible 

• The clef is the normal, unpitched percussion clef

• The time signature is as unlucky as possible

• The quarter note black eye with the tenuto eyebrow begins the irregular notation: the stem is on the wrong side of the note head, and is made of tear drops

• The sixteenth note rest is upside down and spatially too close to the quarter note eye

• The half note rest eye is closed and its accompanying treatment is completely abnormal, confused and meaningless

• The tenuto eyebrow has no purposeful bearing on the rest

• The staccato teardrop under the rest is equally senseless

• The upside-down fermata frown is completely absurd – especially since no music follows

• The contents of the staff allude to a certain disfigurement or abnormality

• Finally, the final bar line drives home the finality of the situation

• Truly a stroke of bad luck
