Big Yellow Leaf: Graceful Sleep Series #2 - Don Schaeffer - Dec 11, 2010

Only humble organelle,
just stiffened
but graceful as a statue

streamlines that
would carry life seepage
closed, unrepairable

abandoned body
still paper yellow
like a memory.

I like to see how much your paintings have improved Don.
Nicely done... Smile

Is this acrylic on paper?

thanks Irma. I think it's the rediscovery of a medium I worked with before--oil crayon.

Wow! Beautiful Don.

I started painting myself, just a little bit of watercolor, and only with the idea of learning as much as I can about colors. I found specially difficult to mix colors with oil pastel.
