On February 23rd, The Writer’s Project at SUNY Adirondack kicked off their 2012 Spring Series with a poetry reading by Author David Budbill at the Visual Arts Gallery in Dearlove Hall. David’s reading was in conjunction with his wife, artist Lois Eby’s art exhibit. The couple have been married 45 years. My goal here was to capture and share the special evening in words and photographs.
Artist Evening
By John R. Greenwood
husband, wife
poet, painter
interwoven pair
reading life in paintings
BOLD RED swirls
Sing Out, “Life”
is all around
us
David, Lois
one brushes with words
a picture
one writes with paint
a song
around hardwood edges
a gallery full
mingles a corduroy casual crowd
smiles
interspersed
with soft voice
and hand shakes
spritzed scent of wine
and plated fruit
“Happy Life"
experience
line by line
page after page
decades crisp
remembered
shared
savored

Not the end,
just the beginning...
