tales of an artist

an artist
someone whose creativity get unleashed
every time they pick up
a brush
a tube of paint
a pencil
a canvas
sometimes they paint
nothing in particular
a blob
a swirl
a curvy line

an artist
someone with 
color practically spilling out of them
blue as dark as the ocean
or as light as the sky when it has no clouds
red as dark as the paint on a fire truck
or as light as a pink rose
yellow as dark as a taxi in a busy city
or as light as the faint wisps in a sunset
purple as dark as an eggplant in my garden
or as light as my converse that i had in seventh grade
orange as dark as a fat pumpkin
or as light as a sunrise
green as dark as the grass under my feet
or as light as the zest from a lime

an artist
someone who recognizes true beauty
in places you wouldn't expect
someone who loves color and expression
and being unique
someone who can paint their feelings on a canvas
someone who is a lot like me
