I like the marriage of small paintings with miniature poems, themed to water
ReplyDeleteNice, I love the simplicity of the poem - and how it ties in so beautifully to the art. :)

all best wishes for your show, claire. these are lovely; and as others have said, the brevity of your written language works so well with the (deceptively) simple visual, imagistic language.
ReplyDeleteYour deceptively simple,yet profoundly meaningful poems and paintings continue to astound and inspire me.x
ReplyDeleteDear Claire, After much too long an absence, this will be just the quick check-in, the basket of love and good wishes. Something meatier will appear before too long. Blessings, xo.
ReplyDeleteWV: mates

ReplyDeleteThis is all marvelous stuff. LOVE the paintings.
