Water color and gouache on paper

What is it?
A landscape? Maybe
Cityscape? Hmmm
Wait, a desertscape?
What if standing
Upside down? A seascape!
Sigh!

The mind sees
Dots, lines, colors.
Buildings or
Pillars or rock?
Sky and earth,
Water and sand,
Night and day?

A quiet voice
Suggests
Close the eyes,
Now look.
Aha!
It is an E
Scape.

Celebrating the life of a dear heart with a little water color combined with gouache.  What began as an abstract exercise with dots and lines developed a life of its own, poking at the need to make meaning from what is seen.
