“If a child is to keep alive his inborn sense of wonder . . .
he [or she] needs the companionship of at least one adult
who can share it, rediscovering the joy, excitement, and
mystery of the world we live in.”

Impressionist Oil Painter In Sabino Canyon — II Leave a comment
Ken Requard Painting In Sabino Canyon (Kenrequard.com) — Photo-Artistry be kenne
This is the second posting on Ken’s painting in Sabino Canyon, the first was last Friday (March 1, 2019). What a perfect time of year to be painting in Sabino Canyon, especially creek scenes.
“I find my inspiration in the created world but it is just a starting point on the journey of creating art. I am excited to find the inner essence of a place or a moment in time and then apply my own emotions. It is exciting to see the right shapes, colors and values come together. Each element in a painting (a shape with value and color) is like a note in music. In a pleasing musical composition, there are just the right number and type of notes in the right arrangement.” — Ken Requard

We walk
the lower canyon
after spring rains.
The creek
runs swiftly from
mountain snow pelt.
Cottonwoods
beginning to leaf,
wildflowers
cover the ground —
a new cycle of life.

Life is all about contrasts
Neither here or there.

Floating Leaves — Photo-Artistry by kenne
Floating Leaves
A light rain falls on leaves
Floating on the shallow water
Above the Sabino Creek dam
On a gray sky January day
Forgetfull of all except the silence.
