flora bowley...layer by layer, sweet as cake

each morning

papel picado teased from above

daring us to move with the wild abandon

of an exotic warm breeze.

 stark white enormous canvas,

sentinels in waiting

dizzy with sunlight and shadows encouraging flora's

first promise;

there are no mistakes

every colour and texture are meant to be 

layer by layer

spiritual cake baby

food for the soul.

you can sneak up on your enormous blinking canvas

with a dreamy,

dripping, starburst of colour and spray bottle appeal

or perhaps you are more of a

out of your head into your body

crank up the tunes, close your eyes,

blind faith kind of painter

either way.....

 

 

your soul has sung into being its first layer,

enormous white canvas;

has met its match.

A wonderful colorful surprise, these last two postings. Everything is so colorful, love the flags, same ones I used to hang from my porch in Maryland, color color color everywhere....then the ghosts of white canvas. What a contrast....Ah, intimidating WHITE until you temper with splashes of water over puddles of paint, forming abstracts to stretch the imagination. Great sequence of photographs and prose telling your story (and others.) Every participant will want copies of of their journey that you are offering as a last gift from your hands, eyes and heart. Just a wonderful sharing for the rest of us who would have loved to have joined you. I would have been happy to just change everyone's paint water!!!! Ah happy day.....more to come tomorrow????? smiles: sharon

Wonderful!! It is always so much fun to see how a blank white canvas can be transformed into a masterpiece, no two alike, not another one ever like this one! Good going to Flora for setting her students free and helping them to go for it, in a spiritual way! It is a true gift to be able to loose oneself while using her or his imagination. Heaven!
Thanks for serving up this exquistie post!
Your photos and words, sublime!
