Nette Onclaud Poet Rhyme Royal

Obsessed By Visual Art

OBSESSED ABOUT VISUALS


How time grows quiet and immensely spent
When a dab of mixed hues ignite the embers,
That  hands dip into oils, a livid intent 
 As brushes splash the grass and wildflowers
While etching a  landscape of trees on bowers,
Contoured forms intoxicate  down the spine…
Where  words are but mute from a view quite fine.

Shapes become fuller on an easel’s rail,
O birth  on canvas fills my soul’s passion 
Until resplendent  images unveil :
This palette of eyes wet with impression
Comes from life’s need to quench true obsession;
For Art’s desire I cannot leave behind
Enticing  new paintings that flame my mind.
