The Artists Hand

The artist's hand works with his eyes

Creating his vision with paints

Some prefer to render raw nature

While others bring to life ancient Saints

Some produce marvels of the technical kind

Whilst others present cartoons and fun

Yet no matter the type of art they produce

There's always a treat for everyone

My personal favourites are portraits

Whilst others prefer a still life

Although every piece of art they produce

Is by hand whether brush stroke or knife

I marvel at the way they use colour

Mixing blue and yellow makes green

So many differing tones and shades

Even some that I've never seen
