Notes About The Poem

CLERIHEW COLLECTION

So exquisite Claude Monet
colour filled never gray
A nebulous impression
from each plein-air session

Arthritis  afflicted H Matisse 
but his art he did not cease
He switched to coloured cutouts
to give his reputation more clout


Abstract artist Mark Tobey
loved his calligraphy
White writing was a theme
in later years to come onstream

 Jackson Pollock loved artistic drips 
a form most of us can get-a-grip
Arrested moments one-by-one
careful don't let them run

 Strasbourg's Hans (or Jean) Arp 
with random art was quite sharp
Everything was made by chance
why not give his art a glance

Troubled soul Vincent van Gogh
yes,the one with the ear cut off
Painted sunflowers so yellow
was in fact a talented fellow
