I like this aerial view - looking down at my desk at night. The brass lamp on the right was my great grandfather's - he was a newspaperman and I imagine it has lit up many a night's work.
I'll show you what I've been working on - mixed media and my own poetry:
"Her friend sent thoughts of far away, solitude, peace and all the meadow flowers. They had a glimpse of a certain spring day, seen through windows welled with snow white yearning ."
This was the first of what is becoming a series. I was inspired by the seed catalogs gracing my mail box last week. Simple grace in a homely winter's mailbox.
You're so talented.....I wish I could write poetry. But I'm useless with words.
ReplyDeleteLove the overhead shot; Kim Klassen uses the technique a lot too. I must try it.....
I love it~ especially because the seed catalogs that came got me so excited for the spring and you took it about ten steps further into art!
ReplyDeleteSo nice Kim....Love that granddad's lamp helps light the way. xox
ReplyDeleteWinter night time studio work has a kind of mellow, kind of hibernation, germinating feel to it.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your poetry play !
Love your project Kim, and that is so cool that you have that lamp and memories! Love seeing your desk full of creative stuff!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous post. We have my Grandad's oil lamp and I do love it when it gets lit so I know what you are enjoying.
