I did this watercolour today for the WetCanvas.com November challenge. The subject is Baddesly Clinston Manor in Warwickshire, from a reference photo from Google Street View provided by the group’s administrators. http://goo.gl/maps/TjvfL

Dance of Joy (poem and painting)

Dance of Joy
watercolour on paper
11″x15″
when you’re happy and you know it
throw your hands up
in the air and just show it
kick your leg up
high behind and then swing it
twirl about and spin
around and just love it
when you’re excited and can’t hide it
throw your body back
and forth and then shake it
sway your hips around
in circles and then twist it
bite your tongue and hold it in
then break loose what’s in and dance it

Tyger, Tyger (poem and painting)

Tyger Tyger
watercolour on paper
14×16
Tyger, tyger wrote a poet
in the shadows, thought he saw it
if it drew near you’d never know it
barely hear the grass around it
Tyger, tiger fearful creature
we cringe in fear at your raw nature
barely moving silent mover
glorious masterpiece of nature
Tyger, tiger do you ever
know how much fear in us you render
calm and patient stand you there
panicked, scared, we favour prayer.
