Reminiscent of a Matisse- Poem 5

Acrylic is an exuberant technique
giving life to colors so unique,
reminiscent of a Matisse.

The pine-scented breeze drifts
from mounts to hills,
an ambient of skylarks trills. 

The French Autumn landscape
with mounts and lake,
an escape for the elite.
 
The noon holds mystique,
away from harsh critique 
paints lovely Bernadette. 

The delicate cotton canvas
is too small to contain all images;
the artist, struggling manages.

The brush drips on grass
changing the shade of the violets;
she stoops down to clean up the mess.
