Edward Lamson Henry
COLORS He writes poems and draws really fun pictures with it!!!! the poems i picked do not have good pictures to show the fun he has with his art but these are two of the most meaningful ones to me. I like how he is able to write poems that kids really like but can also be enjoyed by adults. I remember reading these poems when i was little and never found the meaning but would only love looking at the pictures. Today i found the book where the sidewalk ends and realized the meaning he really had in his work. All his stuff is sketching. He looks like he has fun with it and he is very loose with it. when you look at it it looks very free. Michel Keck Dog art collages series collages, mixed media, abstract painter i found her randomly...it was very weird...she is self taught and has two dogs of her own. I like that she does her art on what she loves the most. Her dogs. i love animals so i i get it. What all the dog series collages have in common is that she uses the real picture if the dogs eyes. In every one. i feel like she does that because its what makes each dog different. They all have different eyes. It looks like fun what she is doing and that she really enjoys plating with different colors. I also noticed that she really gets the worm and cold colors against each other so everything really goes together. |

i took this picture of my sister...she is acting dead and i might paint her with a knife in her chest...i have had something like this in my head for a wile about stabbing the heart and have many ideas...my sister was very annoyed when i told her i needed her in her swim suit because i was going to end up making her naked. i also put a bunch of makeup on her face and had is smear all over her face...i changed the color of her skin to make her look more dead. i did a small fast version in my sketch book and think im going to make it into something bigger.
I drink good coffee every morning
Comes from a place that's far away
And when I'm done I feel like talking
Without you here there is less to say
I don't want you thinking I'm unhappy
What is closer to the truth
That if I lived till I was 102
I just don't think I'll ever get over you
I'm no longer moved to drink strong whisky
'Cause I shook the hand of time and I knew
That if I lived till I could no longer climb my stairs
I just don't think I'll ever get over you
Your face it dances and it haunts me
Your laughter's still ringing in my ears
I still find pieces of your presence here
Even after all these years
But I don't want you thinking I don't get asked to dinner
'Cause I'm here to say that I sometimes do
Even though I may soon feel the touch of love
I just don't think I'll ever get over you
If I lived till I was 102
I just don't think I'll ever get over you
