a poem by M. Szal,
dedicated to Frida Kahlo & Georgia O’Keeffe
Our time is near,
out of darkness,
Our fate starts to appear,
pale and shimmer,
Our beautiful future ever so crystal clear…
We shall twinkle like a star,
With our sweet embrace close here,
How long can I hold my breath,
silence speaks ever so loudly, my dear…
Without you my heart feels death,
together we’ll shine bright don’t fear,
I know we’ve both had lovers before,
but no one ever loved anyone more,
as much as I treasure you and adore,
with your muse the deaf could hear,
We’ll make the whole world shout and cheer..
Your a jem that I would fight for, thine path crystal clear,
whatever it takes,
for like a shimmering sapphire of happiness,
to always be within you and always to be near…
I see eternity in your eyes,
truly so bleautiful,
is your heart and soul,
With devotion that’s dutiful, we’re just like,
Diego and Frida together,
The Truest heart of destiny is you and I.

Pershing Square Watercolors
I was blessed to move to Los Angeles last year at the end of September 2022. As many of the Old Masters once painted the buildings and sculptures in the parks and squares of cities they lived, I have endeavored to do so in reverence to them.
In an attempt to cure my insatiable love of Art Deco buildings, I visited Pershing Square. The Title & Trust building is an Art Deco gem situated off the square, named after prestigious WW1 General Pershing himself, mastermind of the Argonne Forest Campaign. In this watercolor, I did not do any underdrawing with pencil or pen and painted this with the brush from observation with no reference photographs. This process increases dexterity with the brush and better economy of line with each brush stroke.
Pershing Square was redesigned by Ricardo Legorreta in the 1990s and these elegant, orange spheres feature prominently in the square vibrant new look.
