2047. boiling water and pizza

 

the same axiom 
holds true for water and pizza
watching doesn’t help 🦊❤️

A couple of times a month I have morning coffee with my friends Rob and Andrea’s place. I bring along Wawa coffee and he usually supplies delicious bagels and fruit. Well last week he surprised me with a home crafted pizza with delicious tiny golden tomatoes from their garden. I got a kick out of watching him,  watching his pizza cook perfectly.  It didn’t quicken the cooking time, but it assured the crust was perfectly done!!!  🦊❤️

2046. won’t you be my neighbor?

 

a stalk of clover
some blades of hearty green grass
comp’ny for the tree 🦊❤️

Our little parking lot bound tree is growing a neighborhood. Mr. Rogers would be pleased. 🦊❤️

2045. r.i.p. david hockney

 

bringing colors to life
following art where it leads
where blue leaves make sense 🦊❤️

Today’s post of David Hockney is a republishing of my post of 2020. Yesterday he died at age 88. He was an English artist who never ceased recreating himself artistically his entire career. If I had to choose an artist who inspired me the most in my own artistic journey, it would be David Hockney. Rest in peace.  🦊❤️

2044. bolt of lightning

 

from my eye’s corner
an orange lighting bolt leaps
to my eye’s center 🦊❤️

Going from invisible to a flash of lightning… a leaping deer. 🦊❤️

2043. can’t get there from here

 

trapped in a labyrinth
round and round we made our way
finally to escape 🦊❤️

During out evening stroll we came upon a meditation labyrinth. No matter what path we took we couldn’t seem to get to the center. When we finally did make it to the center, getting out was equally challenging. Not very meditative…. The tracker app that we use on walks captured our effort. 🦊❤️



2042. contemporary still life

 

looking straight ahead
not at hand held devices
but at the pictures 🦊❤️
***
lined up like soldiers
giving their full attention
to thoughts on canvas 🦊❤️ 

We visited the Brandywine River Museum yesterday with our friends Gloria and Rachael. The exhibit featuring contemporary still life  works was so-so. But the saving grace of the excursion was the people watching of people looking at art. 🦊❤️



2041. catch me if i fall

 

dare i get closer
if i do i just might fall
from up here to there 🦊❤️

I love the butterflies that erupt in my stomach whenever I get too close to the edge. 🦊❤️
