ShadyCharacter & Gotta Have Faith Portraait Watercolors by Bertie Brown

 Shady Character

original watercolor portrait: 8" x 10"

Gotta Have Faith

original watercolor portrait: 8" x 10"

I once had a thought

original and clever...

but that thought I forgot!

gone forever? 

I hope not..

still, I’m dismayed 

fraught and distraught

‘cause it may have been great

that thought I just lost!

Gilligan's Skipper Watercolors by Bertie Brown

Gilligan's Skipper

original watercolor butterfly: 8" x 10"

Plein Air Posers

Sophie and I 

Are painting plein air 

Under bright sunny skies

On a day so fair

Our sunflowers primp and preen

While we apply the sunscreen

Then get right to work

As we quench our paper’s thirst

With lots of water, that’s our technic

‘Cause happy accidents are what we seek!

Bleeding colors, water marks

Lights contrasting with darkest darks...

Working quickly, we’re in a hurry

(We try not to worry

Will this be a keeper

Or one we will bury?)

Well, Sophie girl

What do you think

She nodded and smiled

And gave me a wink!

Lavender grace

A gentle place

For quiet thoughts 

And simple talks

A spot of tea

For you and me

Refreshed, renewed

We’ve work to do

So on we press

Inspired no less

By happi-ness

not so ItsyBitsy Watercolors by Bertie Brown

not so ItsyBitsy 

watercolor spider: 5" x 7"

Practice makes better

But perfect?

Not ever...

Especially if painting

Is what you can do

You’ll prob’ly improve

But that’s questionable, too

My advice to you

Buy a BertieBrown work

'Tis the right thing to do!

The View Watercolors by Bertie Brown

The View

original watercolor landscape: 8" x 10"

Cold Front

The windows I’m closin’

my sunflowers need  hosin’

it’s blisterin hot

not one cold spot

‘cept here by the door

of the freezer in the store

where I pretend to stock up

on creamsicle pops

but truth to be told

it’s just good to feel cold!

The Blog....

Hey there mommy

Guess what Daddy

Grandma BB

Got accepted

To a website

Or a blogsite

Which is just

What Grandma BB thinks is great luck!

She’ll post paintings

That are waiting

To be purchased

By a merchant

Or collector

Art inspector

Or someone

 Who loves her work and wants to buy some......

She will prob’ly

Post our Ozzie

And that work she

Titled “Sophie”

She’ll work hours

Posting flowers

Music themes

And in between

Some landscape scenes....

Then we’ll wait here

Hope and pray here

That somebody

Sees her work there

And sends e-mails

With some details 

Of an order for

A work to fit their decor!

Summer Bliss

My windows are open

Cool breezes are flowin’

My curtains are flirtin'

With the sill and the sash 

This is the way

A fine summer day

Ought always to be 

For two months or three....

Suites me perfectly

I bet you’d agree!
