The work is a vibrant atmospheric abstract expressionist painting and is an exploration of line, gesture, and colour.

Spotlight Art and Poetry – Love’s Touch – A painting and Poem by Mairi @ Just Mairi

Just Mairi 

Sometimes
I look at my hands;

ageing
and ageless..

all of life's doing
carved
onto
the skin..

all of love's touch;
given
and received

reflected
from within.

Spotlight Art – Still Life (In the Manner of a 1970s Cookbook) – A painting by Phil McAloon

Phil McAloon's paintings

It was only as I neared the crescendo of this symphony in brown that I realised it looks like the cover of a 1970s cookbook. Appropriately, I modelled it on Chardin. I say appropriately because French cooking seems to have had a stranglehold on Australian dinner parties in the 1970s. For ten long years the middle classes appear to have lived solely off duck a l’orange and French onion soup, interspersed with the occasional fondue party. It is a wonder anyone survived.

In a secondhand frame I bought for $3 from the op shop.

In its pre-framed form.

Hear the Hurry of the Bells by Goff James

Robed in hymns and psalms
Hear the hurry of the bells
How the faithful gather

Lessons read sermons preached
Hear the hurry of the bells
Prayers to heaven raised

Penance kneeling duly paid
Hear the hurry of the bells
Worldly blessings made

How the faithful gather
Hear the hurry of the bells
Robed in hymns and psalms
