I would give her a 10 for the subject matter alone. I think she, Cohen and maybe Dylan and Paul Simon are the Poet Songwriters (Patti Smith too) of the last several decades. The painting is gorgeous, showing her multitalented skill at all art forms (like her musical ability). Also it is ironic that Cohen is smoking and the house that housed it burned down.
