The Larger Picture
First published on Facebook, Monday, June 28, 2010
Have you seen an artist at work?
How she often steps back with a reflective pause?
The brush resting against the thumb,
Teeth biting the lips in thought…
A new perspective is sought
And then she returns
To the easel
Closer than before
Now seeing the hidden form,
Exposing it to view…
Requires brilliant splashes of color
Careful smudges too
Some lines erased again
New etchings bared
What seemed destructive
And chaotic at close quarters
Allows the larger design to be shared…
A canvas of beauty sublime
The posterity and perfection
Now visible for all to see
Only when it is all done
Do we know
What was wanting to be
