Description
This abstract landscape was inspired by the phosphorescence of water at night. A few little swishes and that magical event happens. I tried to capture the feeling of the light, reflections, and darkness of evening light. The words to William Butler Yeats famous poem, "The Lake Isle of Innisfree" captures my feelings in this poem well. Here are the words to his poem:
........................................................................................................................
The Lake Isle of Innisfree
by William Butler Yeats
...........................................................................................................................
I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree,
And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made;
Nine bean-rows will I have there, a hive for the honey-bee,
And live alone in the bee-loud glade.
............................................................................................................................
And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow,
Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings;
There midnight's all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow,
And evening full of the linnet's wings.
.........................................................................................................................
I will arise and go now, for always night and day
I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore;
While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements gray,
I hear it in the deep heart's core.
