Hi Craig-
I just read your piece in “the first time I heard Cocteau Twins” and I really enjoyed it. I am a fellow Cocteau Twins and Joni Mitchell fan also 🙂
I learned about your website via the CT essay – looking forward to reading more about you and your work.
Sincerely-
Melanie

Hi!
I don’t have better pictures of the Battaglia murals….I will be going back, since it is my neighborhood library. I will take more pictures and share them on my Instagram account (ethereallad).
