turn off my mind
spontaneous movements
blurring
colour spectrums
~
is art
humanity’s expressions
reaching, stretching
towards eternity
~
grasping
grabbing
nothingness
~
here today, gone tomorrow
we’re dissolving thoughts
this is my stop
~
memories

~
looking through my viewfinder
remembering an artist
striking water, creating rainbows
~
rainbow splash
hit water with heavy stick
bright, sunny, windy
river wharfe, yorkshire

Art and thoughts can definitely be here today gone tomorrow! But some are long lasting. I like to think art of any kind is humanity’s expression of reaching out to find more. Sometimes though, it can just be something beautiful or inspiring to look at, hear, or read – and that’s okay. Perhaps even in art like that, we still reach and grow, but we’re just not as aware. :)

what will represent
our art ?
art is our language
eating slowly
here…a mushroom
here… a leaf
here…a sorrow
here….a color
my bones dance
see me
I am you
sweet nothings
overwhelming sensory connections
~
mmm … bursting pink flowers
mmm … tangy, sweet salmonberries
mmm … thorns scratching arms
I am life
you are life
we are spirit
~
there is art
one with life
awakened perceptions
perception…
curving around angles
leaping through ice
shooting straight as a bird
hand prints on a cave wall
rubber boots
~
fascinating puddles
playing with a stick
tracing concentric circles
