STAR FLOWERS (Children's Paintings Series 3) .

STAR FLOWERS 
(Children's Paintings Series 3) 

"Every flower to a child artist is a star, a star that comes from heaven in varied forms, and myriad colors." avr

Dr Abe V Rotor

Every flower to a child artist is a star, a star that comes from heaven in varied forms, and myriad colors, each color signifying an event or simply a nostalgic feeling,  neither happy nor sad, but a sweet combination of both. Grownups tend to divide feelings, the child artist doesn't: he combines warm and cool colors, combines primary colors into colors of the rainbow.  He is keen at a bud becoming a flower.  It is most beautiful perhaps for an hour, and bids for other flowers to bloom - and the whole garden is a garden of stars - flowers in the days, stars in the night. 

    
Sing to a baby, teach a toddler the melody and lyrics, open to the child a whole world of stars with Mozart's "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star." Reach for the star to grownups may be as remote and fragile as air-castle; to others a dream which has yet to become true,  yet each one of us has a star, each a part of a vast constellation. We . often look up to the sky and search for our star in our entire lifetime.  Young artists catch stars with paintbrush.  Stars spontaneously arise from their canvas. And they become emissaries of love, beauty and peace, the triad of true happiness. 

Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star  

Twinkle, twinkle, little star
How I wonder what you are
Up above the world so high
Like a diamond in the sky
Twinkle, twinkle little star
How I wonder what you are.

When the blazing sun is gone
When he nothing shines upon
Then you show your little light
Twinkle, twinkle, all the night
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
How I wonder what you are

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart wrote the melody for the children's song "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star". It is sung to the tune of the French melody Ah! vous dirai-je, maman, which was published in 1761 and later arranged by several composers including Mozart with Twelve Variations on "Ah vous dirai-je, Maman". The English lyrics have five stanzas, although only the first is widely known.
