Horsehair meeting canvas,
allowing scenes to emerge

When generous splashes of color gives birth
to texturous forms of unveiling beauty

Controlled by the hand of the one who conducts
the fate of the composition

The artist's mind's eyes knows the future of the canvas,
as the great influences of painting masters aforetime are
kept in close thought.

The swirl, twist and stuccato of a brush,
unearthing timeless masterpieces, validating the splendor of art.

And that is exactly what I had hoped for. For the reader of the poem to envision the artisit making each composition his/her perfect masterpiece.
