Not just evocative

Not just evocative,
drawing us into these moments,
we are there with them,
experiencing what they felt,
sitting in our reserved seats,
smelling the peanuts,
tasting the beer, the popcorn,
feeling that same sunlight upon us,
watching our heroes play,
Baseball, eternal, remembering,
these moments today...

We are there - #baseball #MLB #photography #painting

We are there, present,
Holding the heavy cameras
Looking through the lenses
Trying to get the shot.
 
We are in the moment,
The roar of the crowd around us
Standing in foul territory
Trying to get the shot.
 
We are there, present,
At the stadiums, the parks,
With the fans, the players,
Trying to get the shot.
 
We are in the moment
Seeking to freeze the action
We are with our heroes
Trying to get the shot.
 
We are there, present,
Though generations later
Seeing through the paintings
That they go the shot…

A different #palette – v3 #baseball #painting #MLB

A different palette, different brushstrokes,
Not merely the three primary colors,
Those on the color wheel only, drawing,
Painting something more important, willing,
Colors of history, of time, of nostalgia, of memory,
From our perspective, our collective ethos,
From our one story, our common ken, to life.
 
Delicately brushing grains of history on the canvas,
Adding memory of the fans, the nation,
Capturing a moment, perfection…
Affixing more than their features,
Something of the power, the gravitas,
Willing the hesitant colors to become permanent,
Evoking mystery, capturing light in a bottle, a spark.
 
Bleeding nostalgia, importance, these colors,
Our heroes, a different moment, a time,
Our country’s history, our youth,
What we would wish it to be,
When we all played the same game,
Drawn from the palette, a wooing,
A willing of the images to come alive…

Inspired by the Word – v3

Inspired by the Word

the Muse of the Holy Spirit;

Feeding our souls with gifts

we were given,

God’s love for us

Sharing the arts,

the words, the music

inspired by scripture;

God’s revelation given form,

God’s love for us.

Touched by the infinite

touched by the infinite

kissed by creation

journeying out into the world

following our Savior

life is within Him

guided by God’s Spirit

the flame, the breath within us

given to us by God.

touched by the infinite

kissed by creation

giving as we have been gifted

following our Lord

life in being yoked to Him

growing where we are planted

the spark of creation

shared with us by God.

Inspired by the Word - 2

Inspired by the Word

fed by the Spirit

messages in colors

in the shape of His face

in the hands who sculpted

in the music lifted to heaven

all of creation a masterpiece

for the Glory of God, the Creator,

Creator of heaven and earth.

Touching the Creator

Given life

in a breath, in a touch

touching the Creator

the beginning, in the Garden,

Adam, the first man,

given new life.

Inspired by the Word

Inspired by the Word

the Muse of the Spirit;

feeding our souls

through the gifts

we were given

God’s love for us

Sharing the arts,

the words, the music

inspired by scripture;

a visual representation

of God’s revelation,

God’s love for us.
