MY PAINTBRUSH

 "My Paintbrush"

My paintbrush is my scalpel that I use to cut myself

Open and lay it all out there

Naked and bare for the whole to look on

I don’t know why I need to do this

Everything anyone would ever want

To know about me (if anyone even cared)

Is there squeezed out in the paint and canvas raw

The rest is for me alone.

"TIGHTROPE" AT TAM FEATURED ON ONE HUNDRED PERCENT RAG

Lovey art review featuring my new painting,"TIGHTROPE" (17" x 21" oil & tar on canvas). Which explores the delicate emotions between the thin line of Love and Hate.

Now being exhibited at Torrance Art Museum in Torrance, California until December 5th, 2014. Please stop by for a visit if you get a chance!

Much gratitude and appreciation to dear friend, artist and art critic Sandra Vista for the splendid feature and review. Please follow her and her Art blog "ONE HUNDRED PERCENT RAG" http://onehundredpercentrag.blogspot.com/2014/11/velvet-marshall-and-torrance-art-museum.html?spref=fb
