Joan Dixon, Painter

P a i n t i n g t h e L a n d s c a p e

a painter died the other day
and what of this world
will her memory be
the absolute pleasure
she found in nature
her joy and
generosity?

beauty

of the small things
like today
when the aloe vera
luxuriant, with three stems
found spherical harmony
cradled in a
butternut turning
that might otherwise
hold fruit

avada jan6-09 revised-

beauty

the pristine beauty
of minus twenty
the full moon
i love you
icicles in moonlight
sublimate
to nothing

messing up the gallery Jan 5-09


is this thing on?

For years i've been writing things that i have intended to post.

Most of it would fall under the heading "studio notes"  which are
ideas, musings and revelations that come from painting.
