I made some art.
I was visiting our local art supply shop looking for a pen. They had a set of four tubes of acrylic paint on sale, and I thought what the heck. I’m going to make some art.
I’m no artist. This is evident. And I don’t have any kit. So I used a big old house paintbrush and a chopstick.

Looking back
To warn her of the bees
I trod
On a bee
On a table, outside, under the Chinese maple we planted 10 years ago, and critiqued by two Eastern Rosellas, I pushed the paint around the canvas.
No idea. But I really enjoyed the process. The smell of the paint. The feel of the spread. The movement. The experience of creativity. It’s not great art. But it’s my art.
I call it ’Bee’. I think I will make some more.
