Silent Sea©

"Silent Sea"

click on arrow

"I was happy in my harbour
When you cut me loose
Floating on an ocean
And confused
Winds are whipping waves up
Like sky scrapers
And the harder they hit me
The less I seem to bruise

Oh when I
Find the controls
I'll go where I like
I'll know where I want to be
But maybe for now
I'll stay right here
On a silent sea
On a silent sea..."

Dear Olga, If I believed you that the view from your window was this good, I would be on the next plane! Clearly my favorite in this little gallery! I love monochromes anyway and abstracts. But you do EVERYTHING and EVERY STYLE with such amazing excellence and taste. Thank you for giving us, indeed, the universe, so much beauty, thus, encouragement and joy! Peace, etc., Bruce

Fantastic...all...

Ai Shan 13 Apr 2009

Very beautiful work, Olga!

Armando Salas 13 Apr 2009

Hi, Olga. First I though (thumbnail) it was from Nelly but now I see the difference. Although the subject is similar, the "way" to interpret it show us how two talented artists can add "part of their soul" to the canvas. Brilliant work, a winner.

Artist Reply: Thank u for your thoughtful inside my friend... It is always good to hear from you! My husband loves it so much, he doesn't want me to sell this one! Wishing you a great and creative day. Though my family in Holland are off today, I've to go to work in half an hour -teaching- since the second Easter Day doesn't exist in the USA... LOVE AND LIGHT, Moi

Brenda Loveless 13 Apr 2009
