One of the starting points for this picture was to use as a setting a Georgian interior such as found at the Handel House Museum, No. 25 Brook Street. This is where Handel lived from 1723 until his death in 1759, now restored to its original simplicity and elegance. Next door, No. 23 built at the same time around 1720 has been similarly restored and forms part of the Museum, the upper part having been the home of another musician, Jimi Hendrix for the last 2 years of his life. Because of the Hendrix connection I did have in mind to title the picture 'Little Wing' however on reflection Hendrix's lyrics are rather more other worldly than what is occasioned here. I don't think I could have convincingly included all the butterflies and zebras. The real person is Bonnie Meredith.
