 His Artistic Brush

A model sits motionless with diaphanous drape,
The paint in tubes, lies waiting for an escape,
An easel's standing, so central to the room,
On it a canvas. And nearby in the gloom,
An Artist leans casually against an open door,
Been thinking long, but now crosses the floor,
Pulls back the blinds to let the light rush in,
Adjusts his spectacles and prepares to begin,
Then with a flourish of his artistic brush,
Starts slowly to create a picture that's so plush,
A Work of Art maybe, perhaps an important one,
Which might see his name in lights, when it is done.
Needing to observe, he lifts his eyes to peep,
And finds that his model has fallen fast asleep.

Jen! This is beautiful! Is that you? I love the soft painting feel to it. It does remind me of a huge oil painting in a big gold ornate frame.

The poem is perfect to make it even more moving.

I'm not a foot lover but the combination of the hands, leg line and foot really make for nice composition. Love the text too. ;~)

I really like the processing on this one. This would have been great for the Body Part Challenge. Looks like a pencil drawing. Great composition.

WOW this is just so BEAUTIFUL..... actually stunning.....

You should have pit this in the recent Body Parts challenge.....
Maybe you did but I didn't see it.....

It almost looks like one of the Master painters work of art.....

If you put a crackle glaze overlay on top of it, it would even look more like a vintage lost work of art, by one of the famous painter. in our past. Just a thought. If you do please let me know as I love to see it.....
