LEAF IMPRESSION PAINTING (Children's Painting Series 6)

There are leaves picked for the young artist’s art,
     like the shape of the heart, those of the lilies.

Tambal lily (Eurycles amboinensis). Multiple impressions of the large
 rounded leaf by JP Reyes, 7

No two leaves are the same even in the same plant,
much more of different species and varieties;
There are leaves picked for the young artist’s art,
     like the shape of the heart, those of the lilies.

 
Lyn Reyes 9, fragmentary impression painting of the tambal lily leaf

Leaf in fragments put together on canvas is likened
to a rainbow which fell and broke apart;
                    Young artists do catch the pieces at rainbow’s end
  and make a jigsaw of a beautiful art.

painting by Minhin Viernes 9,

  Why not sort out the leaves, group them as one,
         then dab with a variety of colors, of shade and hue?
     It takes patience even when everybody has gone;
       when done, look at the impression -  a lovely view.
