a tale of painting...

It took only a moment to settle right in.

 The paint was poured, the water bowl filled, and brushes were dipped for softening.

Laid down the foundation...

  I was ready to build the story from here.**

All our progress is an unfolding, like a vegetable bud. 

You have first an instinct, then an opinion, then a knowledge 

as the plant has root, bud, and fruit. 

Trust the instinct to the end, though you can render no reason.

 Ralph Waldo Emerson
