Waterfront 1
Looking through liquid
Glazed with reflections
Textured with scum
Filtered particles
Stirred up mud
Gold and silver gray
From the sun
For a long moment
Stopped in time
The conversation ignored
Until a sentence comes through
Reminding me
She still wants to know
Is it her
Or
The next wave
Disturbing the view
Into the deep world
Below the surface
The answer is so obvious
Why is she still
Trying to compete
The first of a couple of doodles I did the
other morning while waiting for a setting to be arranged, and a model to show
up, and for her to find a comfortable pose, for the rest of the day.
Although this doodle started from scratch, I
was more aware than usual where I wanted it to go. The two standing on a dock
was intentional, a memory, almost, a conversation without a voice to break the
silence.
5”x 3.5” Ink and colored brush pens on card
stock.
You are so prolific, Anthony. I can hardly keep up with you. Never a spare moment and you're not at it creating something new. I think your doodles are stunning, so much more than the word 'doodles' would suggest.

ReplyDeleteWow, this looks almost like calligraphy! I love the brush strokes and the contrasting thin and thickness of them. Beautiful black and white image with just tiny pops of color. Well done!
ReplyDeleteElisabeth: Thank you, though, these doodles are quite small. It doesn’t take very long to cover the page.
