Artist’s statement;

“I just want to paint poetry with light…”

Hi!, I’m a self-taught artist living in Greensboro, NC.

For me painting is not only what I do it’s who I am.

Throughout my 40+ years of my artistic life

I have experienced with different mediums,

from my humble beginnings with crayons in my childhood,

I have come a long way expressing the beauty and passion

through painting, drawing and sculpting.

Each painting is a learning experience that I

enjoy more with every brush stroke.

I’ve also painted with air brush and printed T-shirts

and other materials with screen printing. Styrofoam is another

medium that I’ve used creating sculptures

and props for theaters, photographers studios and other events.

I’ve tried my hands on “Pyrography” though I don’t practice

it too much. In my restless quest of new ways of expressing my art,

I have done some computer art and

I will be presenting them soon through this venue.

I hope you find my site appealing,

    SAILING

    ^

    Sailin across the ocean breeze
    Tryin to set my mine at ease
    Splashes for water hits my face
    Wash away me tears
    Tears of you
    The salty water will dry
    Far way from land
    I sail away
    Try to hide
    By love for thee
    But no amout of water
    Can stop this pain that I feel for you
    Yet I much try
    Try and shed you
    From this heart
    That once
    Love you my love

    ^

    Twilight and what will be

    Day’s lingering light an introspection for me
    where did it go
    and what will be

    A time to pause and ruminate
    of what escaped more youthful fate
    and what will be in our twilight
    before the coming of eternal night

    The sea brings out these thoughts, you see
    intimations of infinity
    looking over my life I see
    it always was a mystery

    Hello everyone!

    Nice blog Cyn, I think you will do just fine as our Sunday Host. I see you’re getting into the spirit of it really quick. I spent most of the day with the kids, so I finally have a few moments to come and write a poem too. We’ve been battling the flu so I apologize if I’ve missed a few blogs…I intend to try to get here to The CPC everyday that I can!

    Here’s my poem..hope you like it!

    WITHIN TWILIGHT’S GLOW

    Within the blush of a twilight sky,
    muted-hued brushstrokes
    upon God’s painted canvas
    the day fades with the sun
    and balances upon
    the horizon’s edge,
    melting into night
    as evening draws to an end.

    And we sail together once again
    into that tranquil space
    between the ending of the day
    and the beginning of the night,
    the peace of the moment
    enveloping our hearts
    as evening shadows fall
    and make their way
    in a graceful waltz
    across a water-colored sky,
    as we voyage together
    within this magical twilight glow,
    to that place beyond the horizon
    where our dreams of today
    become our tomorrow’s reality.

    LOVERS’ HONEYMOON

    Inspired by the painting “Twilight by the Sea” by Oscar Arauz

    It was twilight down by the sea.
    A warm ocean breeze came our way.
    Sitting at the table the waiter obligingly had moved
    to this remote spot for the end of our day.

    Sipping our favorite champagne delight,
    gazing into each others’ love-starred eyes.
    Hearing the waves washing the shore.
    So perfect for sharing our romantic prize.

    Watching the sunset first bright then orange mellow,
    glistening lights on the wavetips like jewels.
    Perfection remembered eternally ours,
    highlighted by heartbeating vow renewals.

    Seeing the sailboat cross through fields of vision
    recalling past pledges and dreams to elope.
    Once in the darkness, kisses to treasure,
    whispers of passion and wistful new hope.
