Art Evolution: Dynamic Nature's Art

                                                          Art Evolution 

                           Dynamic Nature's Art

"Art is an evolutionary act. The shape of art and its role in society is constantly changing. At no point is art static. There are no rules."
- From Goodreads

1. Waterfall in the Sky

Waterfall in the Sky in acrylic AVRotor 2025

Hydrologic cycle, but what is it
in simple words, in drawing or painting?
"Please show us," chorused the children -
indeed it's a great challenge in teaching. 

From below, and up into the blue sky,
water rises into cloud, cloud into rain,
into waterfall, falling down to earth,
onto fields and rivers like living train.

Indeed imagery is more powerful 
than vocabulary, or the eye could see;
deep in the heart and mind of the young,
a waterfall lives before reaching the sea. ~

2. Living Cave

Living Cave in acrylic by the author, 2025
 
Home of our ancestors in olden times, we claim,
abandoned in search of a home on the plain,
abode of wildlife and soon forgotten,
in lieu of temples and high rise and halls.  
Hurrah civilization! we all proclaim
in lust and haste, in joyous victory,
played god, built the Bomb, rose from our knee.
Would we return some day to our old sanctuary? 

3. Ghostly Scene

Ghostly Scene in acrylic by the author, 2025

Meet  White Lady or Kapre in the wood
one late afternoon - if you believe;
old folks claim they do exist for good,
they are guardians of nature, they bid.  

4. Misty Morning

Misty Morning in acrylic by the author, 2025

Misty forest may deceive the hiker,
in finding his way into its heart, 
more so in coming back to its edge, 
making adventure truly an art.

5. White Stone

Anting-anting - old folks claim
as talisman worn with pride;
it heals and brings inner peace,
keeping tradition alive. ~

 6. The Red Cross

 
The Red Cross, showing details, in acrylic by the author, 2025

Blood and the Cross 
in any presentation
is universal across
any faith and nation, 
service and devotion. ~

 "Our greatest human adventure is the evolution of consciousness. We are in this life to enlarge the soul, liberate the spirit, and light up the brain." - Tom Robbins
