Valentine for a Liar, Singleton Hippie Art


Valentine For a Liar
(c) Singleton 2010 , Words and Hippie Artwork
SOLD
Cherry filled words
lined up in cheap little boxes,
beribboned
and glittered
and half price the morning after they're uttered....
I couldn't be bothered to listen,
but just so you know....
This velvet valentine's for you...
in all the cream filled colors
of yesterday's candy....
11 x 15 Watercolor on Strathmore coldpress. Sometimes in the deep dark wee hours of madness, we realize, lies are the biggest tell-tale truth ever told. This is the story of that discovery. Clink! To my little hippie child, embrace the moment, and be thankful, not for the tacky little stories they told...but the window of truth it opened. Have wings, little one...

Little White Lies, Singleton Hippie Art


Little White Lies
(c) Singleton 2009
SOLD














Standing over me
like an aging rock star,
wearing his crystal blue eyes like
bling...
he muttered
"Silly little girl
with all your peace~love hoo~hah,
who do you think believes you?"

And I never lifted my head,
never let go of the colors,
the lines,
the flow...
Never let go of the spirit...

"I do"....

Drawn on reclaimed cardstock....colored markers, pencils, ink, peace, love, and yesterday.
