    she speaks with detectable remorse
    beautiful that it is heartbreaking.

    then she says nothing, nothing, nothing.

    but every word she has uttered has imprinted
    itself on the empty pages of my heart.

    all is quiet, and so she is.
    all is beautiful, and so she is.

    Self-Portrait

    Charcoal pencil is used to sketch the outlines
    Of the points of central focus in the painting
    I am designing. The pencil moves quickly, creating shadows.
    I leave the paper white in areas I intend to highlight
    As the work progresses. Slowly, surely the picture gains definition.
    I love abstract surrealism! It makes the viewer decide.

    Blush is best for the first gentle wash, before I decide
    More fully on the colors ...
