Where did he put the wick to light some midnight oil to light other oils, for their lattice work he toiled allowed the hand to move by itself I heard but it is the head that calls a spade a spade and of the tints and hues, what when they fade? he'll be long forgotten yet remembered for a similarity long removed from current visuals that grace a storefront's crystalarity... in search for perpetual poverty alive... fits up to the old stereotype... an artist who rolls his baguette in brown paper once that lunch is consumed in the heat of inspiration it's crumpled mass is spread out to catch a drop of perspiration. He flips through laundry for the last clean shirt... must ready himself for an exposition in the works now where was that wick and the oil for that Grecian lamp to light the canvas of the night allow his hand to reach where colors blend a spade is a spade, small name artist worries in vain but artistic talent is about to be tapped again... Men in black await at the bottom of the stairwell like in Kafka's Trial we bid the artist farewell.. or like Rembrandt who periodically painted his changed face he could never keep up to the inexorable rat race. © Copyright 2004 ecrivan [This message has been edited by wordwizard (01-13-2004 11:00 PM).] |

Thanks Blue, Ilana and all of you what can I say?..there is a definite change in style and approach when you back over the past few years...but the creative process has to continually evolve |
