In No Way Interested

It is a Renoir she said. I was in no way interested. The only artist I feel is less interesting is Monet. But I liked her, so I agreed to go to the art exhibit. One of Renoir's paintings intrigued me. Captured a bit of my heart and soul. I sat and stared at The Bathers for a long time. Ready to go? She asked. Not yet.

The art got you. :-) It can do that if you have an open and creative mind. Enjoyed the poem, Karen. Bill

Thank you Paulette. I am a painter first and foremost and I love it; art is my go-to-place after I fling some poems onto a page.

I'm not a big fan of the Impressionists, either, Caren. I like realistic landscapes and portraits. The modernists...well, no thank you! I do love the whimsical, caricatures, cartoons, etc. One of the reasons I enjoy your work.

Hahaha I love drawing them and painting them! They are so incredibly relaxing for me. I am currently working on 15 of them.
