Excerpt:


Do You Speak Art


Art is the perfect expression of an imperfect world!

It improves Reality, adding finishing touches to

Unachieved moments, completing them, turning

Them into an accomplishment: bringing to fruition

The artistic vision of a painter, conveying her perspective

To an unidentified audience, being able to touch them,

To convince them, to win them over, through her choice

Of colors, her brushstrokes, her scenery, her ambiance!

The artist’s eye is the lens through which all creation

Is envisioned, and subsequently expressed!

Sunrise and sunset on a canvas can encapsulate

The day and night of the artist and her subjects!

The artist shares with the world her view of things,

Her very own perception; she chooses a slice of life

As she conceives it, frames it and presents it to

The onlookers with refined details so they can

Reflect upon it and ponder about its meaning…

Art is, undeniably, a universal language!
