As She Appears
Someone may think this isn’t
finished
That I stopped and didn’t start
again
Someone might wonder if a drawing
Is ever really done
Do we not just stop
When the image is clear
When the past filters through
Someone may think they know
That I stopped when I saw her
again
Someone might wonder if her ghost
Is ever really gone
Do we not just stop
When the image is clear
When the anger returns
Random doodles, while in a waiting
room a week ago. They were all just strangers until…
3.5”x 5.5” ballpoint pen on
paper, of course
Aren't we all just strangers...until we get to know each other?
ReplyDeleteThis sketch is fascinating, Anthony.
My eyes were initially drawn to the central figure...then, as those on either side came into focus, I found more and more detail appearing in each one.
This is wonderful.:)
Aren’t we all… It’s that move from knowing, to believing in, what ultimately isn’t shared.
DeleteYour review on my sketch, makes me wish I had finished it☺
Thank you
This is a perfect example of not seeing details when we see others in a crowd...but then a familiar face stands out, or one person stands out above all the others and their details do come into focus while the others slip into the background.
ReplyDeleteI very much enjoyed this wonderful drawing and I for one like it just the way it is, Anthony~
one can be seen if one wants to, but it's easier to blend in, where no one sees no one..illusion of aloness, I love all you drawings and sketches
ReplyDeleteI thinks it more, about how some people in past continue to haunt.
DeleteThank you
That's how you see it....i see it differently, that's what art does
ReplyDeleteA very good point.. My response was related more to the poem.
DeleteBeautiful words and drawing. Your work is always inspiring. Are any of our ghosts ever really gone?
ReplyDeleteThank you
DeleteAll my ghosts still manage to appear. I’m still waiting for memory loss to kick in.
