This hybrid fusion ekphrasis (above) inspired by the art fusion of Paul Klee
3.KLEE
Once Emerged from the Gray of Night, 1918
https://www.paulklee.net/once-emerged-from-the-gray-of-night.jsp#google_vignette
My version thereof (after Klee) this ' once emerged ' being
Verse traslates asOnce emerged from the gray of night
Heavier and dearer and stronger
Than the fire of the night
Drunk with God and doubled over.
At present ethereal
Surrounded by blue
Soaring over the glaciers
Toward the wise constellations.

5.REVERSE EKPHRASIS painting something poetic
The art of creating a visual response to a piece of writing is known as a reverse ekphrasis ie the inverse of the centuries old poetic form of ekphrasis.
The most well known example being Charles Demuth 'Figure 5' based upon a W C Williams Poem.
here is mine demonstrating formulastic syllable style of poetry in an artwork after Demuth on Williams
6.EMAGI a digital reverse ekphrasis
EMAGI is a recent variation of a reverse ekphrasis derived by the advent of the widespread use of hand held digital communication devices -where words in digital symbols /letters can be represented as a shape
and uses a poet's poem to inspire the digitised 'drawing'
Wallace Stevens'ICE CREAM'

MY ART PHILOSOPHY I use in making my art ,similar to my poetics
I prefer bold expressive applied spontaneity of visceral feelings unpredictable & evolving organically.A physical engagement of energy & emotions in & of the moment processed in a sense of chaotic immediacy
whilst apprecicating the skill in figurative art and my spontaneous 'one-off' reaction thereto
