Woodwinds Rule Watercolors by Bertie Brown

Woodwinds Rule

original watercolor portrait: 8" x 10"

The Woodwinds agree 

it’s a funny thing

To sit behind a sea

Of self-important strings

They chuckle to think

That skinny black sticks,

are in the thick of it

yet they have a way

of playing that makes

the strings settle down

and good music abounds!

The Musical Fish Watercolors by Bertie Brown

The Musical Fish

original watercolor still life w/violin, horn, clarinet: 22" x 15"

i keep pressing on

‘cause that’s what I do

to see what comes next

with a painting or two

there’s music, of course

and instruments, sure

violin and horn

 clari and more

it’s funny, you know

when themes just won’t go

and my artwork shows

my real life also

Rhapsody in Blue Musical Motif Watercolors by Bertie Brown

Rhapsody in Blue

original watercolor w/violin, clarinet: 11" x 7"

“Rhapsody in Blue”

is the main course tonight

and we cannot wait

for this magical flight

we surely will thrill

to Gershwin’s famed score

as the clarinet soars

through that octave and more

so kudos to Allegro

its’ Maestro and crew

for tuning up Gershwin

and playing his blues
