Merry Christmas 2013

 

 

 

 

 

I have not been painting in the last few weeks as I have been loading up Christmas Lights on the fences and house.

 

Wishing Everyone a Merry Christmas for 2013

Bindu Point - inner mind artwork

 

 

 

 

I wanted this little artwork to be kinda cubist in style, with a touch of the mystic side of life...

Android Follower

 

 

 

 

I have just acquired a Android based "gadget", so with my current reading instruction manuals on how to use said gadget; I decided that my next little painting should be, "An Android Follower"!

 

Cactus Flower

 

 

 

I took a little liberty with this cactus, a flower kinda grew a little larger than it would in the wild...

Bright Idea - artwork with flash!

 

 

 

 

This little art work came to me in a flash!

 

 

 

 

Story Lite

 

 

I painted the original then cranked it through the computer as a mixed media - semi abstract. 

Blue Vision

The Lady smiled upon the waters and there was light all  around!

Fish - a little green

Another little semi abstract in  green with a little fishy vibe.

Green Abstract

I just threw some paint down with large brush (for me) and voila...Green Abstract

Ducks - An Abstract

I called this abstract "Ducks"... let me know what you can see in this artwork.

Black Tracks - an abstract

 

I called this little art work "Black Tracks" as I thought about a person going through a dark time  and coming out the other side a better person...still going strong.

Green Dream - does your dream make you green

Green Dream

I painted this little artwork as a response to a song about substance abuse.

Cube - artwork with angles

 

 

 

 

I drew this image lying back in bed...

 

Just doodling and I kinda like the result.

Spook Trees

 

 

 



I just gave this little painting some "ghostly" looks.

Sunflowers

 

 

 

 



I have not put an artwork up here on my blog for a while. 

Here is a little abstract...ish painting. 

Hope you enjoy!

Midnight Ramble - a medical poem

Midnight Ramble by Paul Howlett

 

Returned, a re-tread

Returned to bed

Sent home

Exit from hospital

Gall bladder removed

Guts improved

All is right

All is wrong

My side started

To bleed…

Was it red, no no

It was green

I ask why it is so

The bile is on go

The guts are all wrong

Return to the source

Return to the place

Return to the hospital

There to face

Repair of the first

Wheeled off to the op room

But wait…

Patients are there

Tis very late

The op room was busy

Returned, I had to wait

Till 3 am for my surgeon

 

To put things straight.




This is a little poem I wrote after spending some time in hospital in the last ten days.  I am now well on the way to recovery.

The Guitar Player - a poem of Rock Music

The Guitar Player by Paul Howlett

 

Bleeding on the fret board

Singing on the breeze

Pounding on the drums

Making a life of ease

Rock and Roll music

Blasting through the trees

Drinking lotsa likker

Smoking funny weed

Women in the bed

Women in the shower

Women in my dreams

Of Rock and Roll Power

Is this real or is it not

The microphone, the song

Adoration, fornication

Many loves many lost

Has the singer lost the plot?

EAP - Great writer...

 

 

 

EAP was a great writer... I am sure you can work out who...

Let me know who you think the writer was...




 

The Joker - who laughs last?

 

 

The Joker - he who laughts at you / me? The World?
Most Jokers that I have seen all have a creepy look about them, and I hope my Joker is in the same tradition...

The Night - a poem about pain

The Night By Paul Howlett

 

Late at night

Feeling the darkness

Feeling the pain

 Bed sheets soaked in sweat

What is wrong

what is right

Was it food

I thought in fright

I worked hard today

Maybe a ripped tendon

Muscle of course

No said the guts

And proceed to roar

The agony total

No help from a pill

Emergency phone call

Ambulance please

What a relief

To be given morphine.

The Fence - Color Panels of Paint

 

This painting was a little sketch that I found a bit of fun after reading a whole book on Van Gogh.

Bright color was an aspect of Van Gogh's work, so I painted a little funky fence with most of the bright working colors that an artist may use...

The Ghost Field - Spooky Artwork

This little artwork is my last pastel sketch for a while, as I have now gone back to using acrylics.

I like spook movies and I guess this reflects in some of my paintings / drawings.
