Studying the Canvas

Verdant trees amid giant grasses Swirling in the wind, loving their life Azure sky matching ocean’s whirls Showing off in a lively canvas Who is the artist? What was he thinking? So much green; refreshing; eager, young. Blue is a prominent close second. Kindness, empathy, loyalty The lavender lends romance to the painting So he has a love and is not afraid to mention it. Red hint…..possible soldier or is he flamboyant? I stare at the painting, wondering about him. The swirls and whirls tell me of an artist’s mind. He is fearless, bold; confident in his choices. This is an artist who knows himself. And now I know a tiny bit of him also.

Yes. It is amazing how an artist always puts a little bit of himself into the canvas.

I throw myself in the middle and roll in the neon paints!
