The question asked… (poetry)

The question asked

Was how can we

Make the sheeple

Really see

What is there

Before our eyes

A dastardly plot

So riddled with lies

All the sensible

Logical folk

Are seen as mad

A bit of a joke

Strange to think

That people find

It odd to query

Or use your mind

Because it’s safer

For the blind to keep

Their self-denial

And stay asleep

It becomes more obvious

Quite plain to see

We’re not in the same

Reality

But were we ever?

My first book of Rhyme and Reason poetry published in 2018. Volume 2 is on it’s way, 2020 has been motivational for trying to make sense of the world even more than before!

I give some thought… (poetry)

I give some thought

To where this goes

There are theories

But nobody knows

For sure what’s really

Going to unfold

Just sit tight

And do as your told

Is what they say

But it makes no sense

Treating us all

Like we must be dense

Lies and deceit

Right from the start

Each person picked

To play their part

In taking that

Which we hold dear

And replacing normality

With a landscape of fear

Butterfly #1

~ MKW Publishing ~ 2 Comments

I have no idea what type of butterfly this is as I only managed to take a picture with it’s wings closed, despite it being taken at a butterfly farm! I have looked through the pages of options and nothing fits so far. There will be more to come, but this is one of my favourite pictures, in fact I think they all are 😉

Learning to paint #4

~ MKW Publishing ~ 2 Comments

Continuing with watercolours I redid the cactus and night sky ones, choosing to do different colour combinations to see what works best.

And as I like a bit of sparkle, got a bit distracted by the metallic paints 😁 I’m not sure which one is my favourite because I love them all.

Now I’m back on the acrylics to see what I can do with these effects in different paints.

Learning to paint #3

Slowly getting there and finding styles I like. I picked two tutorials, cactus sunrise and a northern lights sky. Pleased with both but instantly wanted to do the northern lights one again and have been this last weekend. Second attempt was much better! but will be on the next post. Turns out my next cactus one was pretty good too, but it all has to start somewhere.

I also wanted to see if I could recreate one of my own sunset photographs. The one I chose I have as a set of coasters so could put it in front of me to paint. Not quite exact, but I’m happy with the results.
