A Simple Sunday featuring art by Robyn
Welcome all!
I met this week’s artist on myspace a few years ago. I have really enjoyed the many facets of her art.
While the art being featured this week, is a pastel abstract piece, Robyn has her paintings on her website paintingsbyrobyn.com
If you’re looking for something beautiful to decorate your home…go and check it out.
About the artist(by the artist):
I grew up in Illinois and I remember as a child spending hours outside alone in nature. I feel that most of my paintings come from that place in my mind where I felt calm. When I paint, my emotions run through me and onto the canvas. What I am feeling at that moment is what you will see on the canvas. Each painting signifies emotions in my life from times of sadness to complete joy and contentness. When I paint I feel a peace I can’t explain. When you look at my paintings you will be looking into my heart, my soul and my life. My paintings are arcylic on canvas, stretched on bars. Most of the paintings are gallery wrapped. All the art work is orginal, hand painted, and signed. They are not mass produced prints so you can be guarenteed you are buying a genuine piece. Art varnish was applied to protect from UV and dust. I have tried to represent the the painting accurately, but the color may differ on monitors. Thank you for visiting my page. If you are interested in purchasing a painting send me a message for further details or go to paintingsbyrobyn.com.
This Week’s Art
“Confusion”
please use only this piece of art for this challenge
AND be sure to credit the artist if you use the art in any way.
Now, there will be no video chat this
week, so let’s lay all our fun on the
tracks of this blog.
Let’s get the poetic train a go-going.
Much love to Robyn for the beautiful pastel piece!
Your artist Robin..Very blessed with talent and inner-peace with nature Love art on canvas always beauty, shared:)
spinning on a stage
dancing for a wages
gone is the innocents
which use to lay
beneath the clothes
that fall away

A twisted heart; a depressed soul.
Which way do I go?
The road is a cross roads for me.
Confusion stagnates with in my spirit.
Only colors of blacks and blues do I see.
A healing is being placed upon me.
But which road do I take.
I’m afraid I’ll brake .
I stubble often and my soul only mumbles .
I’m left standing trying to forget the beat rap scare’s.
Confusion has taken over my mind.
I’m spinning in circles doing my lost time.
Depression takes my breath away and leaves me the walking dead.
I would give anything to fix my confused head.
Awesome art and poetry! Thanks, Robyn, for sharing your talent with us. Will be working on something.
Wow that is the tops,
your write just bops.
I like the graphic,
it’s really terrific.
Robyn’s art inspired,
and to reply you aspired.
May this poem clear away,
the confusion you do play.
Copenator out! 😀

Inside the mind of a mad man.
Confusion reigns, or does it?
Is it not genius to create the illusion of madness?
A dollop here, a dollop there
There’s madness everywhere.
Robyn, the artist, “confusion”.
Copenator the writer applies a stroke or three and voila,
confusion becomes madness in the mind of a confused madman.
Double speak? Nah! Just the end.

I think this is the PnP. It says to add the photo by using the URL. It did not work above obviously.
A fascinating artistic creation Robyn, thanks for letting us play with it poetically!
I regret that a business commitment requires that I retire early tonight, and be unable to attend tomorrow until after 4 P.M. I did this write, just did not have time left to PnP it.
Marmelade Mourning
Marmelade Universe was in turmoil,
under potentially deadly attack
from the dreaded, enormous Butterknife Creature.
Many citizen pieces of orange,
possessing the zest to depart,
clung to the invader
thrust into their world,
“Do not go, ye knoweth not
what lieth in store for ye
beyond our world!”
shouted those remaining behind.
Indeed, all the emigres ended up toast,
or rather were spread out upon it,
and completely consumed by the barbarian interloper.
Back in the Marmelade Universe,
survivors mourned those lost,
but heaved a collective sigh of relief
following the alien withdrawal.
Little did they know that their own demise
was just a matter of time.

CONFUSED MUSE
Through the eyes of the peacock’s feather
Feeling confused, under the weather
Clearly, I can not see
What life has in store for me
My mind swirls and swirls, around it goes
Taking me places where nobody knows
Muted colors, not so bright
With my third eye, I try my sight
Trying to decide on what to do
All I know is how much I love you
I’m not sure exactly why
Rubbing my temples, let out a sigh
I write and write to let go of the pain
Before the confusion makes me insane
Whether a beautiful picture or life in general
My muse is tempted, so I reach for my pencil
Gathering up all the thoughts in my mind
Placing them in order, so other’s can find
Some sense to it all, when I finally scribe
All my thoughts, with you I confide
I only hope that you can make sense of this
My hopes, my dreams, my fears, they all exist…

SPUN OUT
I remember well a time,
and not so very long ago,
when the world I knew
seemed so nicely wrapped
in cute little boxes
and bright-colored bows.
I remember that time
when everything seemed
to make so much sense to me
and anything out of the ordinary
simply left me scratching my head
and rolling my eyes as I wondered
just exactly what it was supposed to be
But as I look at those little boxes now
and how they used to be,
up on the shelf and tidy,
so neatly wrapped and bowed,
I’ve come to realize
that life’s simply not like that,
for the boxes have been opened up,
distinctions not so clearly defined,
ideas and views that I didn’t see before
have finally come tumbling out.
And now when I take a closer look
at the things I used to see,
the things that left scratching my head
and rolling my eyes and wondering,
I see them in a new and different way,
not confined to boxes
wrapped up in cute little bows.
And finally the world is clearer to me
as I’ve spun out of those boxes
that so very much confined me
within the walls that closed
my mind and my heart,
as I’ve spun out
and have been set free.

Thanx For Lettin Us Use It !!! 😉
Thank you to all you beautiful people who came to support the blog (and each other) today. Another great marriage of art and poetry. Be well all!
Please thank Robyn for sharing. I hope all members will take a chance to go to her website. I very much enjoyed going through her portfolio and listening to the music on her page. She is very talented and we are lucky to have her as our featured artist. I think it is very neat that her paintings are fueled by her emotions. I have definitely bookmarked her website and hope she may consider becoming a member here. 😀
EYE THAT SEES
Eyes of many
They See much
Circling round and round
Lookin all about
They see me
And they see you
They see the light turn to dark
A starry night
Turn to a bright and shinnin day
And oh what a beautiful day
For you and the me
