MARY, MARY ……
Mary, Mary quite contrary
how does your business grow?
Does your bank balance swell,
in the house where you dwell,
do the punters queue up in a row?
Mary, Mary quite contrary
how does your blond hair grow?
Does it sweep to the floor
like never before
does it cover your down below?

Two fun writes Michael.
Clever artwork, there is a depth to it that is intriguing.
I enjoyed doing this piece- I used several different implements to get the effects - the fence was painted using a large toy tractor wheel for example. Actually I'm not that pleased with the photo - I couldn't seem to replicate the original which looks far better but that's life!
The originals are always so much better and worth going to see.
A good writes and pic Michael. I don't regret missing that ultra-modern Art Show. I don't mind some modern though.
You can't beat a better bitta modern can you O?
That painting is captivating. I would have never guessed the fence was done with a toy tractor wheel though. The poem was quite comical, line at the end got me good. You can paint and write, you sly dog!
Nice work, Michael.
Woof woof - thanks Nicholas.
Thank you for showing all we are capable of, outstandingly inspirational. Words and pictures would be better in more enhanced but still would not replace the vibration.
Really appreciated and blessed to know your work.
Thanks so much for your kind words Dan. So much appreciated.
Interesting picture in acrylic Mike with lots of movement in those dancing leaves - love the chuckle too the Mary verse raised for me.
Thanks Fay
Hello Michael,
Great write and the lovely picture beautifully illustrates it.

Dear Mary bless her - I've written several pieces based on nursery rhymes - all ready for posting - thanks so much Lorna.
Oh goody, time for my weekly visit to the GP - on telly, that is! It's difficult to watch all of it now, as they do some small operations too - not for the squeamish!
Some say 'Got enough health problems myself, without tuning in to others on telly'.
Have you got the vapours then? Good luck and keep taking the tablets.
Last night's offering included an injection into a heel. But a far more squeamish thing after it - a trauma ward. Did not watch that.
Thanks Uncle Mike : nearly 10am Thursday here : free morning as we have a Seminar on Safety on Saturday following the Mosque Massacare : NZ still in mourning !
Love the PIC : Spring Blossom ? 21 march tomorrow ? Autumn is starting here : Foliage is starting to be Rainbowy ! Love the MARY MARYS 1. Q for Massage ? 2. Shades of Lady Godiva ?
