You nailed it perfectly, Gunther! ...  the poetry is the story, mood, or emotional impact that the artist is conveying to the viewer.  :)))

Thank you Christina, Michael, Mark - I thought you might comment on colour/ brushstroke/ observe this or that...but I do not know how to answer to "visual poetry". So it is not painting I can learn here it is language ;-)

I understand from your remarks that it is not so much the technicalities of a painting that move, it is the story or the feel one has with the small bird. As I want to try another one I have now selected a photo that continues the story of mastering the stream.
