The apocalypse

You have seen quite a lot of paintings owned by Arnold, our veterinarian friend. I introduced Tony and Arnold to each other late in 1981 at Tony's 50th birthday in Antwerp. After the party Arnold took him to Etienne's Musiekdoos where he MC the hootenannies for a long time. Tony had had an open heart operation I think in 1975 and had been told he had five years... My family visited Tony in 1980 in the States. After breaking up with 'Sue' he came to Antwerp. He needed a lot of expensive medication. At a certain point Tony became a very 'expensive' friend and Arnold could get him the prescriptions and some of the med's at a better price... Tony 'paid' in paintings. He has done many paintings and drawings about Death. The apocalypse depicts death as afair maiden on a unicorn...
