Sealpoint ~ Taj
The finest is
if any cat a sealpoint
stretching legs together overlong
taupe stockings against
thighs of ancient watered silk
no
offwhite nap of heaven
now curl cat
orderly just so
and let me
own a statue
no
a satin flag signals
not a perfect fit
and one point lies unfurled
so
primp just once
a combed line sits abreast your prow
and yawn your face
a toothful chasm
nearly inside out
(very like a snake)
then circle once
yes
make your mask serene
to gaze in azure
no
to blink in your slow cadence
show shining gems in ebon velvet
will you sleep?
not now
as you are watching me

Joseph in Profile ~~ Oil on wood panel, 36" x 24"
Joesph is a smooth, graceful African with the hint of the Semitic in his features. His skin tones are a delight to the eye, and he evokes a sense of calm and serenity.
The music Joseph often brings to his modelling "gigs" speaks of his love and appreciation of all ethnicities.
