The Birth of a Painting
Contributed by Yvonne Moss
It starts with a subject, selected for interest,
Then comes the hues, watercolors from Pinterest.
You decide on a message you wish to deliver,
It may be abstract or some sort without quiver.
The quality of loose paint on wet water-paper,
Has tendency to change as it moves like a vapor.
The paper takes charge as colors merge and join,
Now the piece comes alive and new colors form.
With little guidance from me, to see what betides,
The painting completes right before my eyes.
