Paintings Inspired by Poetry

by:  Christine Burns

 

 I was drawn to the writings of Esther Margaret Ayers.  Her poetic visions played vividly in my mind.  As her words unfolded so did the plan for my paintings.  “A Blessing Upon the Chorus”,  written by Esther Margaret Ayers inspired a painting!  I have always loved song and have been a member of chorus.  Ms. Ayers words brought visions of voices coming from all walks of life, all shapes and sizes, all tones.  Each voice must sing its song for the love of song.  Joining together is so pleasing to our Creator; we are lifted, we are celebrated, we are chorus!!!

I humbly submit my painting “A Blessing Upon the Chorus” with much thanks to Esther Margaret Ayers.
