Art - Marc Zakharovich Chagall

Death of Bella Holding each other's hands They were flying like birds A tiny town below was softly glowing Under the moon, love was overflowing Mark whispered to her gently “I’ll certainly never leave you ” In the room with a bouquet Joy springs from a cheerful minuet His head suddenly turned upside-down Everything was torn down The Death of Bella caused his distress Love was expected to be endless Indescribable sorrow to be expressed Unimaginable sadness was addressed But Mark turned his unbearable sadness into valuable masterpieces which are more precious than pearls. 27th April 2017 An Undying Love: “Around Her” by Marc Chagall http://blog.sevenponds.com/soulful-expressions/an-undying-love-around-her-by-marc-chagall

This is wonderful, Felicia, about an artist AND painting that I adore! You have captured it so exquisitely, and conveyed the emotion and intent of the piece to perfection. Such incredible beauty comes from such tortured souls ... I wonder if that's the price we all pay as artists? Certainly those like Chagall, Van Gogh, on-and-on ... LOVE this! Congrats, a seven for sure, and well-deserved! :-)

Much of mine as well, Felicia ... I know that my time spent in Hell - whether by my own hand or others - was for a positive purpose, though I can't always SEE that purpose ... perhaps it is for us to reach others who are there, and show them there is a way OUT. I don't post all my dark works, as it often worries my friends, but it does more to heal than anything else, and I cherish it.
