another artist
what will this be?
it seems to be a landscape
and it’s pretty accurate.
I wonder if I could get a bit closer
although I don’t want to put him off;
rather I should walk a little further
such a lovely lake.

This image shows a man, probably an older man, sitting by the shore of a lake and there is a painting / picture in his hand. It looks like he is trying to capture the scene in front of him on paper / canvas.
Written in response to Sadje‘s What Do You See #307 photo prompt.

Yup, one doesn’t want to intrude on an artist at work! A lovely take Chris! Thanks for joining in.

A lovely poem, Chris, and a good question. Does he want to chat about his art, or is he lost in the creative process, not to be disturbed? 😀

But it was nice to respect their privacy. 🙂
