Returning to Kindee

Relaxation is the primary goal when we come to Missouri. Eileen bought me a watercolor paint kit to play with. I haven’t played with watercolors since kindergarten. It is fun being a kid again. This is my second effort done just this morning to capture our deck view scanned and resized for email. Richard King (bless his heart) requested so don’t blame me.

Painting:By Patrick Granfors


Poem Artwork

Not exactly photographic

Hardly well composed

My novice level effort

Is certainly exposed

 

It really doesn’t matter

I do it for the fun

Relaxing breeze comes off the lake

To temper rays of sun

 

I get to choose the colors

No one will ever know

My green is dark and blue is light

Brown is more like yellow

 

Release the inner child

You’ll be surprised at what you find

That a simple little painting

Childhood memories can remind

 

No fear

The appreciation of art, so they say, is strictly in the eye of the beholder... and, what the hell, Patrick, if you had fun doing it, who am I to say it ain't art.

Ain't too shabby though I doubt we will see your works in any art museums anytime too soon...keep practicing, maybe they will be chosen posthumously...;-)e

Hah! Well good for Richard. I think this is . . . er . . . Well, it ain't bad! Just kidding around, Patrick, for the first time dabbling in the watercolors since kindergarten, I think it is just fine.
