So exquisite Claude Monet
colour filled never gray
A nebulous impression
from each plein-air session
Arthritis afflicted H Matisse
but his art he did not cease
He switched to coloured cutouts
to give his reputation more clout
Abstract artist Mark Tobey
loved his calligraphy
White writing was a theme
in later years to come onstream
Jackson Pollock loved artistic drips
a form most of us can get-a-grip
Arrested moments one-by-one
careful don't let them run
Strasbourg's Hans (or Jean) Arp
with random art was quite sharp
Everything was made by chance
why not give his art a glance
Troubled soul Vincent van Gogh
yes,the one with the ear cut off
Painted sunflowers so yellow
was in fact a talented fellow

made 3d reliefs when at the tiller
Simple shapes primaries on white
thus De Style came into sight

Burnt sienna strokes,
wild Sun an abstract artist;
The night steals the hue.
