Asian Style Brush Painting Welcome to our blog where I view life from the eyes of an artist's soul and with the help of my assistant, ArtMuse Dog, we explore how creativity enhances the inner spirit. Whether you are viewing art, creating art or even seeing the beauty in nature, you are enhancing your inner spirit. Beauty is every where; one only needs to use their given senses to see, feel, hear, touch, taste and intuit the beautiful life. Today we are sharing with poets and artists who will add to your day with their wondrous creations. We are linked with: Paint Party Friday Haiku My Heart The photo above is another of my Asian style brush paintings and is for Paint Party Friday. My haiku are below the next photo. |
We love to have you post your comments, thoughts or questions to delight us all in the day ~ especially, ArtMuse Dog ^_^
There is a blog hop every Monday and opened all week here at A Creative Harbor, Magical Monday Meme for all creative people of all creative mediums, art, photography, poems, needlework, crafts, etc.
Hope you will join us and help expand the world of creativity.
QUOTE FOR THE DAY: 'Work is not always required...there is such a thing as sacred idleness, the cultivation of which is now fearfully neglected.' (George MacDonald)
Your poem reflects the beauty of nature ... lovely :-)
