poem #431

The dark arthritic tree stands strong against the pale gray sky, a single black crow perched on a mangled naked branch. This colored sky usually drops rain in buckets but for the moment it is dry...the pavement still stained with falls discarded leaves. The train is in motion and I see the city is slowly waking up - sleep still in its eyes.

Neato Artist: Justin Maylone



I recently found Justin through Etsy and have to say I am loving his art! I think it's amazing and has such a depth and richness to it. The textures are beautiful and I love the colors he uses. These paintings have been very inspiring!

poem #212

the fog quietly crept in
over the city this morning
and the sky remained white
until well after noon.
frost covered patches of earth
pale in comparison
to the ground twinkling like diamonds

playing favorites

These are some of the only pieces I have actually planned out in advance and have had to figure out how to make the dream a reality. I heated the metal, hammered it and then drilled holes for the fine silver accents to go into - there are tiny little balls on each side of the metal. The texture is incredible, it's like reading braille on metal. These are definitely my new favorites!
