pretty wild flowers
and tall grasses
and friendly feathers

must the moment come
when I must leave
for civilised routines

where flowers are cultivated
and grasses are mown
and feathers preen

must the moment come
when I must pretend
to like
the masked ball

With a Palace...

Eugeniusz Zak (1884-1926​) (Polish) - Landscape with a Palace (1921)

Reflecting...
Quiet stream
Tiny bridge for those who walk alone
Wild rocks

A shepherd dreams alone...

A palace
In the distance...
In the far distance...

Artist and Pilgrim 2006 by Anatoly Kontsub (Belarus)
~

A kind of haunting


A pilgrim
Yearning to be an artist


An artist
In touch with
His pilgrim spirit

Dreamcolours

Leonid Afremov - born in the city of Vitebsk, Belarus in 1955 - the same town where Marc Chagall was born. (Belarus became independent of Russia in 1991.) This is an oil painting created with a painting knife and called Dream.

Raining colours of light
Goring the wells of night
Flooding the fears
Lubricating vibrant pools of happiness
