Years ago, friends gave me a music mix for my birthday titled Super Eclectic Roller Coaster. It’s full of different types of music from hard metal to downright goofy and perfectly captures my personality. I’m an original Star Trek fan, and two of the songs are from the stars of the show Leonard Nimoy and William Shatner. Nimoy’s is his recital of “Desiderata,” very spiritual and uplifting, whereas Shatner’s spoken-word version of “Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds” makes me laugh. Here’s Lucy with her stars and diamonds in the Orenburg style that I learned from Galina Khmeleva. It has a modern twist with a new shape, worked all in one piece with strawberries, diagonals, and mouse print elements.
