THE LIFE ARTIST

Michael Edwards

 

The artist’s critics highly rated

The feminine forms in the nude he created

His models disclosed

They were quite unopposed

To the sight of him painting stark naked.

      Oh lol, good write M.
      Me usual poem got lost somehow today! A mad moment from me.

      • Michael Edwards

        Did you find it?

        • orchidee

          Nope - it's in me 'poem hymn book' somewhere. I forgot the title of it. Maybe I didn't post it at all - a phantom song?! Miss Berles says those syllables have been lost now.

          Michael,

          So happy and grateful to see your artwork and to read your poem today.

          I’ve been absent for a while due to medical reasons. I’m so appreciative to be able to read again and comment on the posts.

          All the best to you and your family. Hope all’s well with everyone.

          When the artist said it was rude
          he was considered to be quite a prude
          but when he ripped off his clothes
          and struck up a pose
          he landed in court being sued

            Superb - you always respond with a gem - keep 'em coming.

            Please tell me you still used a brush to paint!

            • Michael Edwards

              I use all sorts of objects to paint and make marks: brush, stick, wire wool, sponge, cloth, comb, and so on.
              Cheers SC.

                My first laugh of the day Michael, thank you so very much.

                Another very intriguing artwork.

                • Michael Edwards

                  Thanks Neville - my two favourite forms as well. Sorry I only visit from time to time but will try to post more regularly.

                  Life was much simpler then - or maybe still is for all I know...
                  Nice piece of art - I'm not complaining, Michael, But you could have done one more illustrative of the matter in hand (so to speak) surely?

                  • Michael Edwards

                    The last time I went to a life class the model turned out to be an elderly male - I've not bothered to go since then.

                    • Doggerel Dave

                      A promising career curtailed before it even began....My commiserations, Michael.
