Description
This was the last picture taken of Jimi Hendrix apparently enjoying English tea. I've had this picture of Jimi a long time and I'm not quite sure where it was taken, prob a special place he visited in London that served English tea; but I do know it was the last picture of him taken whilst sat in a tea garden drinking tea and contemplating, with his beloved strata on the other chair as if it was joining him for tea as there are 2 cups. Little did Jimi know, or did he, what fate was to befall him, as not long after this picture was taken, I do believe it was the following night, he died 45 years ago on Sept 18 1970 it was a great loss of his special guitar talents and to his unique song writing.
I've created this artwork in his memory from the photo with a star shape in the picture, purple stars and a glow of sunshine from the sky giving it a celestial feel of starlight, space and time mingled with the unknown that was to come for Jimi. This work is a portrayal based on Purple Haze and purple was Jimi's signature colour, his guitar and the tea set he is drinking from has this colour. I have another design that elaborates on that, I will upload next on here
