Notes About The Poem

from HOW TO PAINT leonardo's treatise

Arrested Moments Leonardo

dried stains
               on walls

   loose ashes in
                  the hearth

transitory clouds

  movements in a
                          stream

A fascinating few lines,Brian. They prompted me to do further research and it was so interesting to note how he used images from the stains on walls to inspire some key faces in his paintings.
