Description
THE SILVER BUTTERFLY AND A GHOST OF A CHANCE
Between and around these painted shadows
of a different love and time,
a silver butterfly slowly glides
through corridors of a drifting mind.
A broken promise burns brazenly red.
Our ghost of a chance sits humming songs blue.
Green recalls too often taking its pride too seriously,
while everything gold still adores-- everything about you.

The above lines are included here because poetry on one level or another informs and inspires almost everything I do. However, those who are more interested in technical background information on this artwork are invited to read my ArtNotes blog entry on it. What I will share in this space regarding the butterfly is that it landed on a sidewalk in front of me as I was taking a hike through a southern U.S. city. It kept relatively still and modeled long enough for me to photograph and mentally sketch it from several different angles.
Thank you for stopping by.

Thank you very much Geraldine. This is one of those pieces where I was trying to expand my normal palette.

It all starts, for some of us, Aberjhani, as you say: the gift of the butterfly, that finds us ! The poetry ensues, of course. I do so resonate with the experience of this artwork, its inspiration you 'knew' without thought, the thoughts then painted in the brilliant colours of life itself,the description that shares and instills inspiration......Kudos, compliments, always so much 'more' you give......thank you...........fv..........VIVA

Greatly appreciate your comments VIVA Anderson. This particular work forced me to stretch in some ways technique-wise I never had before.
