Daylight.
Sun and cloud shadow,
bird-song echoes through an open window.
A dog barks, the cat calls for breakfast.
Kettle boils, coffee brews,
rain falls on the garden.
Structures, solid, recognisable, re-assuring.
Neurons. Electrical impulses. Thoughts. Senses.
Patterns in transit.
The kaleidoscope of life,
evolving.

Teri, your words strike a chord early on this Friday morning. It’s the reassuring ‘other’ which gives me hope. A kaleidoscope asks our involvement for the wonder to be revealed. But all too often I dwell on the static pattern. Thank you.

Thank you for your comment Tom, I like that you made a connection with the reassuring ‘other’ and our use of the kaleidoscope to reveal the wonder. Thank you.

Thanks Nick. It’s approx: 16 x 16 inches (40 x 40cm). Got to work up to a large canvas like yours, I’m still practising with oil paint.
