I Am Sailing by Viva Anderson, abstract expressionism, minimalism art....Quote by Grantland Rice ::"It is not whether you win or lose, it is how you play the game."
I Am Sailing is my abstract expressionism painting celebrating sailing races on Sydney Harbor, Australia. This is that moment when racing, when the competitors must 'round the mark' on the course,to qualify for the Finish. The pressure of racing is exhilarating.
.
'hark, now hear the sailors cry,
smell the sea, and feel the sky
let your soul & spirit fly, INTO THE MYSTIC”...
― Van Morrison

Sea Fever
By John Masefield
I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,
And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by;
And the wheel's kick and the wind's song and the white sail's shaking,
And a grey mist on the sea's face, and a grey dawn breaking.
I must go down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide
Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied;
And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying,
And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.
I must go down to the seas again, to the vagrant gypsy life,
To the gull's way and the whale's way where the wind's like a whetted knife;
And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover,
And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick's over.
