Making up with the Moon, Singleton Hippie Art


Making up with The Moon
(C) Singleton 2009
SOLD

I danced barefooted
in the blue green tidal pool...
a make believe paisley water garden,
salty and cool..
And waved good~bye to
The Ocean.

She was
running off to meet Eternity,
her giant seafoam petticoat dragging the sand...
trinkets and treasures tumbling from her
pockets...

A love affair that never ended....

And then I felt you...
there in the night....
in the damp seaside breeze...
saw you in the face of the Moon...
smiling...

God, I love fairytales....

Artwork 8 1/2 by 11.Colored markers, pencils, ink and memories from hippie beach on cardstock.

Singleton Hippie Art, The Girl with The Swirl


The Girl with The Swirl
(c) Singleton 2009
SOLD

And in the morning....
Long before sunrise,
wide eyes
and the scratchy sound
of the Morning News
wakes the world,
She's a Mermaid....

Finger painting little "I love you"s...
in the sand...
Splashing in paisley colored tidal pools...
gathering periwinkles for hide and sink,
Etch~a~sketching tatted lace
from the footprints of
tiny sideways crabs
and Seagulls on parade...

The Girl with The Swirl...

9 x 12 Watercolor with colored pencils, markers and sharpies. Because I believe in the Ocean. And in 10 days, she'll believe in me again...

The Ring, Singleton 2007, Outsider Art

THE RING
Outsider Woman Hippie Art
(c) Singleton 2007
SOLD

Imposssible...
This trinket...
accidently lost...
It's owner paying no mind...
When the salty fingers of fate
spider-danced up into the sand
and stole, quickly,
the glittered past...

Impossible...
This trinket...
tumbling slowly...
lazily...
in an oceanic womb
of safeness,
and then
Clink.....
Landing at my toes....

Pencils, ink, markers, my life and all that other hoo-hah on 8 1/2 by 11 cardstock...

Don't Look Down, Singleton 2006, Outsider Art


(c) Singleton 2006
Outsider Art

DON'T LOOK DOWN
Rock bottom is much further than you think

SOLD

I'll masquerade around, arms tied, pretending to float.
Sinking
Kicking
grappling at the rusty little treasures...
waterlogged moths, barely breathing....

All dressed up and no place to go
Except tomorrow.
Or down.

It's All Good, We Can Fix This ... Singleton 2006, Outsider Art



(c) Singleton 2006
It's all good,
We can fix this...

SOLD to a sister in peace, in time......

You're broken.
And I'm watching.
Dragging out the paints and the glue and the glitter.
Waiting.
You're broken.
And when you're ready, we'll put you back together again. Tidy up your damaged soul. Paint a prettier past for you to fall back on.
It's all good,
We can fix this.
