.........................................................................................................
The Most Unkindest Cut of All, is my meltdown,emotive, square, abstract obsession, expressionism, paintography, ,macabre,dark,lament, acrylic, by VIVA Anderson, and is my emotional outpouring about loss, my own pain.
It is solace.
It is cathartic, symbolic, obsessive, my meltdown.
Sonnet 30,Wm.Shakespeare,final couplet :::
"But if the while I think on thee,dear Friend,
All losses are restored, all sorrows end."
"A cry from a 'broken heart'":::Twain.
Marcus Antonius:
Shakespeare. Julius Ceasar Act3/scene2
"For Brutus, as you know, was Caesar's angel.
Judge, O you gods, how dearly Caesar lov'd him!
This was the most unkindest cut of all;
For when the noble Caesar saw him stab,
Ingratitude, more strong than traitors' arms,
Quite vanquish'd him: then burst his mighty
heart. . . .''
Mark Twain:
"Pity is for the living,
Envy is for the dead,
Death, the refuge, the solace,
the best and kindliest and
most prized friend and
benefactor of the erring,
the forsaken,
the old and weary
and broken of heart."

"At first the infant, Mewling and puking in the nurse's arms; And then the whining school-by, with his satchel, And shining morning face, creeping like snail Unwillingly to school. And then the lover, Sighing like furnace, with a woeful ballad Made to his mistress' eyebrow. Then a soldier, Full of strange oaths, and bearded like the pard, Jealous in honour, sudden and quick quarrel, Seeking the bubble reputation Even in the cannon's mouth. And then the justice, In fair round belly with good capon lin'd, With eyes severe and beard of formal cut, Full of wise saws and modern instances; And so he plays his part. The sixth age shifts Into the lean and slipper's pantaloon, With spectacles on nose and pouch on side, His youthful hose, well sav'd, a world too wide. For his shrunk shank; and his big manly voice, Turning again toward childish treble, pipes And whistles in his sound. Last scene of all, That ends this strange eventful history, Is second childishness and mere oblivion; Sans teeth, sand eye, sans taste, sans everything." - William Shakespeare "As You Like It"

ViVa, Splendid work, I especially like the Sonnet and Marcus and Mark! Very touching. Splendid in the sense that it lies hidden,. the spoken tones, the words enshrined within the imagery, the emotions toned and flattened within the dark hues, my friend. For if ever we will be able to fly, the souls wings must escape the dire reckoning of our earthly cotton and then to really capture that which has been hidden from us for so very long, my friend. I dither with words and take your time. Thank you for such wonderful work.:)))))))
VIVA Anderson replied:

ViVa 🙏
