Workshop # 9 
Creating a Masterpiece

Until yesterday
I was 
unaware.
Blind.
Un-conscious
to the 
power of choices
that rested within me.
All my tools and colors
were chosen by others 
and
were handed over to me.
That was until yesterday !

Today is a different day !
For today I choose 
the landscape
the background
the scheme of colors
the medium
the strokes of my brush.
I choose them all
with consciousness and
in full awareness.

And every once in a while
I like to 
pause,
stand away from it all
and 
take pride 
in what's shaping up to be 
a masterpiece -
the very purpose 
for which the Master
created me.
