This little pen and ink drawing from November 1990 was probably done in the States but feeling blue for Antwerp. You see the city in the background. It shows one of Tony's recurrent themes: the art coming alive, taking off of the page: set free from art folder is what he wrote with it. Nice tribute to a city and its pretty ladies. Notice the harlequin and the musician in the drawings in the background? Tony Mafia had the blues...

I am appreciating how Tony's art enhances my own sense of aliveness. So many moods wrapped into a single painting, the layers of times and places . . . each painting is a mosaic of image and sensation, juxtaposed and intermingling.
