Walking through the gallery
Let’s take our time inside
Learn about the history
About the artist’s lives.
Decades past and present
Their use of paints and clay
How they spent their afternoons
Their evenings and their days.
A tapestry of colors
A glimpse into their minds
Analyzing every stroke
Their use of curves and lines.
What they did to capture light
Adding texture to the mix
Creating portraits one by one
Their techniques, and all their tricks.
Landscape paintings … oil and brush
A park covered deep in snow
Children playing happily
A special place to go.
The metalist, a genius
Creating shapes with steel
Using open fire and tools
Expressing what he feels.
A myriad of textures
Cotton, silk, and feathers
The artist’s vision set apart
With many trinkets brought together.
So unique, one of a kind
To inspire and to critique
Different styles and medium
Some powerful, some weak.
One man’s trash , another’s treasure
Some can see beyond the scene
Open freely to the rhythm
Of the artist’s abstract dream.
A gallery , an empty space
Till each piece is on display
Carefully placing one by one
Till sold or given away.
A welcomed guest, a voyeur
Come join us, have some wine
Check out all the new artwork
Great way to spend your time.
