Blue

Oh ~
How I long ~
For the bathing compassion ~
Of the deep ~
Profound ~
Sea of blue ~
BeFore me.


For me ~

Blue ~

True blue.

The most challenging color ~

With which to paint.


On my palette ~

My eye ~

Never drawn to it.

Actually sometimes ~

Avoiding it!


All of my senses ~

Trembling ~

Momentarily paralyzing ~

When brush in hand ~

Attempting to stroke it.

One of the bluest paintings ~
I ever painted?
Et voilĂ !
A tad simple?
Yes.
From the Soul?
Indeed.
Perhaps a young Soul?
But from the Soul ~
Nevertheless.


Blue ~

True blue.                             


They say that blue ~

Represents ones deepest emotions.

Like the depths ~

Of the deepest oceans.


Hmmmm ~

Why so 'unwatery' my paintings?     


Perhaps when I reach my emotions ~

I will grow ~ 

Blossom ~

Breathe ~

And see ~

Blue.


Thus finally painting ~

Blue ~

True Blue.

Yellow


Yellow ~

One of the three primary colors

Yellow ~


So illuminating ~ exhilarating ~

Yellow ~

So powerful ~ enlightening ~

Yellow ~

Fresh ~ tingly ~ sparkling ~

Yellow ~

Close your eyes ~
Face the sun ~
See it through your eyelids ~
Feel it on your skin ~
Taste it's nourishment ~

Breathe ~  ~   ~     ~     ~
Sun's light ~
~ Yellow ~

I LOVE ~ YELLow ~

Why jealousy of the yellow rose?
Why yellow~bellied coward?
Why unloved yellow dandelions?

Yellow is clarity ~ cheer ~ curiosity ~ energy ~

Yellow is birth ~

Use it today ~
Thus creating ~
And feeding ~
Productive vision ~
