RESTLESS BIRD
You are like a breathless bird
Too tired to fly, needing to rest
You travelled so far
You are like a restless bird
Needing a mate, wanting to nest
You traveled so far
You are like a sleepless bird
At the end of a journey, you hope for the best
It is the beginning of many beginnings
You finally ‘ve come home
A ha! Now we meet again here my friend… at least to enjoy your work for me..
Hi Albert, yes, all our friends are slowly showing up now … like Yucca said … it’s like “getting the band back together” 🙂

Much to look at and consider, and quite provocative!
Hi Norman, thank you very much – title, text and imagery go hand in hand … are equally important for me. I like to stir up things a bit.
This has to be one of many fav of mine..love the textured layers..and mystique about it 🙂
Lovely to see you here dear friend…

Cool artwork 🙂
Hi Bexibones, thank you very much
This is fabulous Peter
Thank you very much, Denny
I feel conflicted about this piece. The violet color palette is soothing, but the texture of the work is almost disturbing. I keep wanting to look into the painting see if I can identify shapes, objects, faces. It’s very dramatic!
Hi Blue Sailor, if you feel that way, then I actually did my job. It is all about our search for happiness … longing and belonging, sometimes returning home after a long journey and everything changed … at times for the worst. The bird is in the center of the image (look for the beek) and the water troph at bottom on the left side.
wonderful use of colors, layers & textures. and another perfect marriage of words & art.
Hi Helen, thank you so much
