Glassified in-Formation Still Life Watercolors by Bertie Brown

Glassified in-Formation

original still life watercolor w/horn, glass vases, marble: 12" x 14"

back in school

we learned the rule

that there were cliques

a specialty list

of kids way cool

though we weren’t fools

our own gene pools

just did not rule

we weren’t as blessed

our confidence less

we weren’t sure why 

and could not guess

but since i've grown

i have been known

to play horn well

for quite a spell

now as i paint

i simply state

this art i make

is instrument’ly

a quirk of fate

The House That Josh (re)Built Watercolors by Bertie Borwn

The House That Josh (re)Built

original watercolor home painting: 8" x 10"

sometimes when I doubt

and nothing is clear

my horn just comes out

and a painting appears!

of course there are times

when plein air’s the way

and sunny warm climes

mean a landscape paint day!

It's The Little Things That Count Watercolors by Bertie Brown

It's The Little Things That Count

original watercolor still life w/horn, glass, marble: 12" x 14"

The French Conundrum

the french horn is happy

wherever it plays

from woodwinds and brass

to  the strings with such class

yes, the instruments agree

it’s sound does so please

and most of the time

the horn is quite amiable

but it can get unruly

and downright unplayable!

Passages Watercolors by Bertie Brown

Passages

original watercolor still life w/bust, glass, daisy: 14" x 18"

the piano-forte

is high on my list

of things i should try

before i am missed

but how in the world

could my fingers and toes

work all of those keys

and pedals of gold???

i can’t even think

of reading bass clef

‘cause treble takes all

 the brains i’ve got left

so maybe i’ll just

be happy that i 

was suitably good 

playing horn while i could
