ROUGH DAY DARKLY
Yesterday was a rough day
Made me question existence
You don't want me there
That's a moody festival
The things I hold near and dear
Coming apart in splintered dissatisfaction
Truth is
I was going to tell you the truth
It's better that I don't
Let's keep the mystery intact
I'll give you this painting instead
Pretty in a dreary sort of way
Gouache has a method....

Sadness does make one question existence. Emotion also brings about writing and art, opening oneself to that very thing we question.
I like the moody festival of colors in your gauche piece.

I was probably in a moody mood when I did this painting. It was part a series of 25 paintings I did during heavy pandemic lockdown. Introducing them now as the mood fits.
I appreciate your comment NG, as a fine artist yourself you understand mood and execution well !
Many thanks

I was a moody bitch yesterday. Not as bad today, but still feeling a little broody.
I hope you're better today as well.

you're doing a beautiful job at expressing yourself that's it with painting our moods, the paint having a mind of its own and skill... that's art... I love what you do...

It's pretty amazing how the hand and mind guides the paint to express emotion. It's been about a month since I've painted.
I'm in the thinking stage again planning my next series...
Thx so much B

Having a shit day here too, so I'm loving this.
Wishing I could find the oomph to write (or sing or whatever) my mood but no, all I want to do is sleep and shut it out. Thank you for this pretty little piece of melancholy. ❤

Dear PS,
Intriguing second stanza. Mysterious and alluring at the same time. I agree the painting suits the mood and foots the bill in blurred lines and truth avoidance. Diversionary tactic with something pretty works 97% of the time. I’ll take it. Gritty write I totally dig big time. H🌷

Dear H
Now that the weather is turning I'm sleeping much better. Window open and AC shut down mostly. My job is a pressure machine though and I'm getting too old to handle all that bullshit. So I'm often moody during the week. I'm very good at what I do and extremely focused on details, problem is a lot of people aren't and I have to fix everything. Patience is a virtue and I'm running on empty .....
Hence a rough day poem
Thanks for listening H
🤣

Not sure why I found this so relatable when you said "Coming apart in splintered dissatisfaction", and then even more when we hold back our tongue so as to not speak what is on our mind.
Wonderful spill dear Poet, accompanied by some great work.
BIG LIKE on this.
