I am a blank canvas
     My potential is
 limitlessness

  But that all depends
    on who holds the
brush, the artist

Premium Member A Blank Canvas Becomes a Masterpiece
Looking close at the blank canvas.
Impressions he wanted displayed.

Stroking slow and pressing his brush
an image came forth from Monet.

Laying dormant all of Her life.
Her moment in time had arrived.

 The feelings She felt from within,
were delicate strokes, brushed by him.

They were gentle and soft to...

The Canvas
She painted her emotions with a dark brush
My heart sunk into her canvas
Transported to an endless sadness
She greets me there with a smile
Her light not visible from the other side

"Come" she says
"There are many rooms to explore"
She skips along yesterday's corridors
I follow in tentative...

The Canvas
A blustery breeze blows through the half-opened window

of this secluded second story loft

 sun rays pulse upon the silken fibers of your hairs

as my once dried out paint brush comes to life

The blank canvas sprouts wings

as your spirit dances in shades of

soft browns, vibrant yellows...

Forces of the universe produce a wonderous array of spectacles afar. 
Monstrous planets rotating around just one lustrous inferno of a star. 

Myriads of illuminated stars are part of the yet unexplored distant space. 
Nature not to be outdone displays ecstasy in many an enchanted...

Premium Member It Started With a Blank Canvas
How endearing the innocence of life was,
When blissfully it started, with a blank canvas,
Cherishing in mother’s love and warmth,
Happy as can be, cuddled in loving arms,
Flaunting vigor of adorable, zealous charm.

Life ran into hurdles as it learned to walk,
Stumbled, yet got up, after every fall,
Giggled...

Topic 1/ The art was most masterful on the dark canvas.
            _________________________________________

A dimly lit canvas displays the best artwork,
A creature beyond earthly limits,
Harmony of shadows and strands
A superb creation that enthralled...

white
  clean lines
  a beauty
  and timelessness
  the harmony and sacred atmosphere

  atmosphere on a canvas ... you decide
  reflects the time
  a zircon
  the light
  white

Canvas of Catastrophe
Canvas of Catastrophe



An outcast portait of society
Public opinion timidly restrained
Descriptive world of psychotic anarchy
Borderline genius, brilliantly insane

Artificial imagined ancient discovery
Sacrificed human, silenced little lamb
Red drifted mist it's as thick as thieves
King of the Dead, Queen of the Damned

Perfect people dancing in puppet strings
A choreographed movement...

Paint Your Dreams On a Canvas
Paint your biggest dreams on a canvas
Lift it high for all to see
Lift it with strength and humility

Soon, many shall see your works
And fulfill your dreams
Filling themselves up with their own insight
Delighted by your brilliant light!...

As Canvas Weeps
Unblemished vellum
Begs the Imagist's pardon:
Forsake not my skin -
Complete my chaste nakedness
With threads of dappled spectra...

The Canvas
This poem is a farewell piece of advice to a group of students I have taught over the last four years. I do 
hope they find the metaphor meaningful and believe that they are the "architects of their own future."

Spread before you is a canvas...

Premium Member Painter Me
Green on my fingers, 
pink and purple too.
Acrylic paint lingers,
Ah! There is red and blue.

When I paint I’m such a mess,
Ruin my clothes every time.
Outer beauty must confess.
Truly hidden under grime.

Magical canvas,
Interrupts in ups and downs.
Makes me so happy,
In yellows, blues and browns.

Light and lively,
My...
