Sticks and Licks
drawing:18" x 22"
in the beginning
I had a thought
then came a drawing
twas all that I sought
now here’s the big thing
will I paint with style
those woodwindy sticks
or just have a quick
lollipop lick
or munch on a thick
black licorice whip

Quints' Jam
original watercolor with woodwind quintet: 14" x 17"
licorice whips
and lollipop licks
glasses and globes
and woodwind also
it’s relative you know
but one thing’s for sure
this group needs a horn
with full rounded bore
to balance the sound
of notes up and down
and licorice whips
are relative links
to lollipop on sticks

cheers to beginnings
for 2000-1-2
I do hope my paintings
turn out well, I do
so here’s to good starts
whatever they be
as wet paper + paint
spread out before me
may each have a touch
of magic I trust
as I skillfully
wield my paint brush!

Baubles and Bells
original watercolor musical motif: 17" x 17"
the same
somehow
yet different
so now
I’m gonna move on
to another, without
a horn, as no doubt
twill be easier left out!

Baubles and Bells
original watercolor musical motif with horn: 17" x 20"
so now it’s done
and I had fun
‘though there were some
solutions that
to be exact
were just a tad
surprising, so
I really hope
it’s fit to show
if not, you’ve got
to let me know......

It's All Relative
original watercolor musical motif w/drums, piano, trumpet, guitars: 17" x 11"
It’s relative-ly
a new work, you see
with something that’s old
a shape big and bold
and some that are new
with int’resting blues
borrowed from yet
a past series set
hmmm...
it sounds just like
a pre-wedding sight!

Cor-nucopia/Horn's A-Plenty
original watercolor still life w/horns: 22" x 17"
there’s def’nitely
a space for me
in this new year
and here I see
some horns indeed
and crayons too
and other stuff creatively
posing quite rela-tively
so on I’ll press
toward the mark
of ending well
a well thought start
