Roberto Ferri / Pablo Neruda | Il tuo sorriso..


Toglimi il pane, se vuoi,
toglimi l'aria, ma
non togliermi il tuo sorriso.

Non togliermi la rosa,
la lancia che sgrani,
l'acqua che d'improvviso
scoppia nella tua gioia,
la repentina onda
d'argento che ti nasce.

Nicoletta Tomas / Pablo Neruda | Ormai sei mia..

Ormai sei mia. Riposa coi tuo sonno nel mio sonno.
Amore, dolore, affanni, ora devono dormire.
Gira la notte sulle sue ruote invisibili
presso me sei pura come l'ambra addormentata.

"For me, art is like breathing. It's a necessity. Some people enjoy art for its inherent statement. I truly enjoy the process of creating that statement". It is this love for her craft that drives Katherine to paint.
