Exercising Imagination

During a short walk for exercise near my home, I came upon this sight of tiny flowers. How small they are, I thought. Then my imagination zoomed in to see them from the viewpoint of an even smaller creature of Nature, an insect. How large they are, I thought. Now my imagination lifted me to the perspective of a space traveller. Gone were the flowers. Gone was the planet Earth and the Solar System. I wonder what’s over there, I thought as I passed by while exercising my healthy imagination.

Mosaics 2

Acrylics on paper on canvas. This is another of my stay at home projects recycling some of my paintings of past efforts. It’s a meditative process where peace of mind flows easily.

Stay At Home Mosaic 1

Afternoon sunlight on my mosaic creation of acrylics on paper on canvas changes the colours in a subtle and pleasing way to my perception. I have three more to do. Paint. Cut. Paste. Seal. Share. I have discovered that my mosaic projects are in colour harmony with Hubble’s release images of The Cosmic Reef. Wonders of the Universe!🤩😍😁

Poetry

Flow of Poetry. Acrylics on paper on canvas boards. I created these three ‘mosaics’ by cutting up some of my acrylics on paper paintings I wasn’t pleased with into smaller and smaller pieces 😁 during stay at home time. After completion I went for a walk and came across these pretty blue ‘forget- me-nots’ which I photographed for this layout of my art. It’s been a fun project.

Ancient Poems

When the golden glory of Egypt

went to see the splendors

and rich glory of Israel

in Punt, the Holy Land,

the Songs of Solomon were born.

Every Song

Every Song Ever Written

Every Song Is A Poem

Every song ever written

is a poem-

as is every hymn

and every psalm.

This World is ever filled

with countless poems

floating through the air

from dawn to dawn.

Prayers

Soft Morning Light

This morning there’s a soft light on Apricot Lane and Barbados roses gracing our table. The fragrance of these elegant roses so delicate it is a joy to be in their presence.

Sassy Tulips

Sassy Tulips are fun to have around these stay at home days. 😁

Bright White Hearts

Spring blossoms of Bleeding Hearts grace us once again.
