Abstract African Art Painting: Family Unity

Last year one of my clients requested an art piece based on the theme of family. Unlike most of my art pieces this particular piece is an acrylic painting on paper. The client requested a painting in earth tones and did not mind a medium other than metal. Because of the sheen I usually get on metal paintings and my temptation to emboss every metal art piece I do, I decided to stick to paper. This is the first art piece in my family art collection.

Poetry Contest and Abstract Sunflower Painting

One of the websites I write for HubPages.com is running a prose and poetry contest this month (November). I submitted an entry titled, Sunshine Filled Yellow Rays an inspirational poem about depression. The poem is dedicated to a dear friend of mine who has been battling clinical depression for years, you can read the inspirational poem at Hubpages. Those of you who are artistically inclined may want to enter the contest the deadline is November 22nd, 12:00pm (PT). If you miss the contest it is still worth joining Hubpages.com you can earn money from articles you publish on any topic and it is a good way to generate income from your creative work. I created an abstract art painting to accompany my poetry contest entry. For the art piece I chose the subject matter of a sunflower for two reasons, I love the brilliant yellow color of sunflowers especially when contrasted against a blue sky and for me the sunflower represents happiness. Here is my abstract sunflower painting.

Art Gifts by Injete, June and July 2011

Of late I have been extremely busy trading currencies and I have neglected my creative pursuits. My muse kept calling and since my fabulous younger sister Sandra was visiting from the States, I decided to do an art piece for her and for my other sister, Laura and brother in law, Ed. At the same time a friend of mine commissioned an art piece for one of her work colleagues, I had promised a family friend a wedding art gift and in the midst of all that I got a request from another friend to do a book cover (the original piece didn't work for him so I ended up sending him my sister's piece to use as a cover). So I wound up with a whirlwind of creative projects in June and July (I guess my muse decided to hammer me on the head since I kept ignoring her). Here are the fruits of my labour. I am quite pleased with my evolution as an artist and all the recipients loved their art pieces. It has been a busy but fruitful period. My goals for August are finding some balance, spending less time on currency trading and re-allocating time to my creative and online ventures.

A Pot of Love and A Mother's Pride
A Narrative Poem About Mothers Love
By Injete Chesoni

In our kitchen above the stove
Sits a pot my mother calls love
It’s a strange little pot you see
Decorated with eyes that always watch me
Much like my mother’s eyes follow me

One day I decided to ask my mother the story
that lay behind her little pot of mystery
She sat at the kitchen table
And took me up on her knee
Then began to tell me the pot’s history

When I was a young woman
A little older than you
My mother came home
With a package wrapped in blue
She called me into the kitchen
And gazed down at me
Then handed me the package
much to my glee
I tore off the blue wrapper
expecting to find
Baubles or jewels of some kind
Instead what I found
Was a pot drawn with eyes all around

My mother sensing my dismay
As I put the odd little pot away
Smiled her gentle smile
And said in her loving way
I know you don’t understand this gift my child
But you will one day
And on that strange note she rose
and strode over to the stove
To begin cooking our supper

I stomped out of the kitchen with my odd little pot
And tossed it in the corner wishing it would rot
Many years later after my mother died
Is when I finally realized
That the pot was her way of letting me know
She would always be watching over me
with a loving glow
Stored in the eyes of the pot
that she gave me so long ago.

I looked up at my mother as
tears rolled down her face.
That’s the end of the story she said.
I reached for the pot
And caught her teardrops
As they slowly slid off her face
And for the first time that night
I saw the pot with different eyes
It was a pot of love and a mother’s pride.

A Poem of Thanksgiving for a Mother's Love from Mothers Poems, Narrative Poems and Story Poems by Injete Chesoni.

Portrait Art and Abstract Metal Art: Sold Samples

These are samples of my metal art work which I recently sold. Both the pieces are oil paintings on embossed metal. The Old Man portrait is drawn from a picture that I liked. I enjoy painting portraits of old people they have such interesting faces. The Two Mothers, abstract metal wall art piece is drawn from my imagination. I was doing some sketches and liked the lines on this one. I also wanted to play around with color and different shapes on metal. It was a fun piece to do.

Poetry Art: Shadows of Doubt By Injete Chesoni

Shadows of Doubt: Acrylic Painting
Abstract Art By Injete Chesoni

Shadows of Doubt
What is real
and what is an image
When we stand naked before the world
do we show our real selves
or is our true self
consistently hidden in shadows of doubt

`````````````````
How can our true beauty be revealed
if it is cloaked in appearances
Perhaps when we go to the place of nothingness
our true beauty will emerge.

(Shadows of Doubt: Poetry by Injete Chesoni)
