Description
Painting Worlds that only exist in the minds of a few. Dancing on water, and singing the Siren's song of sailing Ships.Sing a Song of Sailing Ships
Sing a song of Sailing Ships
And Sirenβs songs of yore,
Long lost loves, hearts cracked or chipped,
Passions shared no more.
Sail the crests of waves of loss
And explore eternal tides
Dance your dreams on Star Light Streams
The winds will be your guide.
Sailors lost and sailors found,
Lovers gone to sea,
They changed their course
And with slight remorse
Accept what cannot be.
Sing your songs of passions
Oh Sailors wild and free,
Then with the tide
Watch sunsets glide
Like molten gold into the Sea.

Hello, My Sister,
This time it's Yakshi. You have been really busy since the last time we visited. I love how your poetry and art are interfacing more and more. This one is especially moving. Poetry, Kevin's computer art input, and Chrisnboat's spheres meet House of Chabrier!

It seems as though the images are triggering the poetry, and Kevin keeps checking in to make sure I'm painting in Adobe Photoshop. Once I get good he may throw some work my way. It's fun to paint floating Spheres in space or on water. These paintings remind me of the paintings I used to do for Claudia's (Cloud) mother. She would give me money, or a table, or and Art table in exchange for paintings. My very first patron of the arts. Good memories!

Hi, Annie,
As a newcomer I know I'm going to enjoy becoming reacquainted with your art again. Look at all this new hi tech stuff. Is this Kevin's influence? Looks like you took the ball and ran.

Mom, I've always taken the ball and ran. I just don't usually run in the direction people expect me to. I love the computer, drawing and painting every day in AdobePhotoshop and Adobe Illustrator. Yakshi is the one who made it possible for me to buy all the programs so you be sure to give her a big hug for me. It's made a big difference in my art and my life.
I also draw and paint every day in regular art such as watercolors, pen and inks, and pencil drawings so my skill and speed which was always fast is increasing expedientially. I'm glad you're visiting and it will be fun for you to see what I'm working on. Love you Bettybegood...

You always notice the things that I spend extra time on, and want to make lush, realistic, and naturally lovely. Thank you my sweet friend. I just happen to love roses.
