They seem to appear from the canvas,
with searching eyes, somehow manifesting from the drips and smears;
a soul of their own doing.
Brought to life through his hands,
these waywards finally at rest.
A life story made real
yet transient and fleeting
as the fog rolling by
the car windows on a sultry nighttime ride.
Luminous
soft
fluid
and
smoldering
from the palette of his dreaming.

( These are an example of work by my husband, Ken Morford. His online Etsy shop is still under construction,but inquiries about purchasing paintings are welcome. His blog contains a little more about his work. Click here.
Ken is also a poet. You may find his beautiful poetry here.
I am a lucky girl. Surrounded here at home by his talent, and graced with his words.
Surely, the most talented man on this planet! Not only the artwork which renders me too speechless to post comments on his site...but the poetry too! Did he really do that portrait of Dolly Levi from memory??? The detail!
