My name is Leona Oppenheimer and I am a Swedish painting artist – inspired by Bob Dylan lyrics.
Like A Rolling Stone (private)
oil painting 89 x 116 cm
Like A Rolling Stone is one of the most well known Dylan songs. Still he includes it in almost every performance and several artists has made covers of it. In my head I saw the woman riding on a genuine chrome-horse! (Even if I believe Dylan meant a motorcycle.) Her diplomat with the siamescat sits in front of her and you can see two clowns juggle with colorful balls, or balloons. Napoleon in rags are standing barefeeted on a stair in front of a brickwall. This was one of the pictures that first came to me when I listened. I am very sure that other scenes will pop up in my head that are connected to Like A Rolling Stone!
