Georg Kajanus' paintings
The paintings of
Georg Kajanus which you can see below were originally published
at the Blue
Desert -
the SAILOR-website of Glenn Knøsgaard, Denmark. Now we are proud
to be able to have them here on the MARINERO website as well. Two
paintings are already sold.
Special thanks to Georg Kajanus!
Here's Georg's letter from the Blue Desert website which tells you a bit more about the paintings, written in early 1999:
Dear SAILOR Fans,
Happy New Year!
As you may know from my previous Email to "Harbour", I
am selling some of the original paintings I created during the
old SAILOR days to help finance a new musical project that I am
writing entitled, "People Industry". Anyone who should
purchase a painting and therefore assist in this project, will be
given a special credit on the "People Industry" CD when
it is released, as well as being mentioned in any live
performance programmes.
The process of transferring the paintings to photographs has
inevitably affected the accuracy and intensity of the colours.
Also, certain anomalies have crept in, such as blotches and
streaks, that are not on the original paintings. The most
noticeable examples are "Blue Desert" and "Self
Portrait With Christine". However, they still give a fairly
good representation of the paintings.
I have to admit that it was very difficult for me to arrive at a
price for my works, since they have been living with me for
twenty years. Ive consulted with several of my artist
friends, as well as two art galleries to try to arrive at a fair
price, considering their history, size and general merit as
paintings. If these prices prove to be inaccessible to you all,
then I hope that you will still get some pleasure out of viewing
them as an art collection and a part of SAILORs history.
I have decided at this time not to get involved in the rather
complex undertaking of making limited edition prints from the
paintings, as it is quite a business in its own right.
Finally, I would like to thank both Glenn ("Blue
Desert") and Jerry ("Harbour") for letting me post
the paintings on their Web Sites.
Best wishes to you all,
