5581 The Artist 03 August 2006 The artist, the picture, the painter the picture upon the page Each day, each year another brush stoke to paint Water and oil, acrylic in the colour red Each moment to think, as the pigment upon canvas does drink Splashes of blue colours of gold A rainbow upon paper the tale of the artist, all told The picture, the painter this medium called art Each day, each year another brush stoke to paint © 2006 Christopher W Herbert (a New Zealand Poet) a poet who cares “The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place: from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape.” Pablo Picasso (1881 - 1973) Spanish Cubist painter |

You just wrote a rainbow ~ and I love rainbows! Thanks for this colourful write. As an "artist" and "poet" myself, I found this highly appealing. Linda |
