I'm glad you decided to write more than one monoku, they're each done with thought and imagery, the painting so busy it needs more than one line! But you've expressed so much with so few words, it's more difficult for me than writing an essay! Impressive Kim! Xo

Who would have thought that a monoku was a useful tool for portraying such a prolific artist. Chagall is my favorite so I enjoyed writing for this. :) Blessings, dear one!

How fun! Wow! He is talented then? Thank you, Yann! Chagall is my favorite. I love his use of colors and how he saw his dear Bella and his love would be shown by flying her through the air!
