Poem for a Friend

By flowing hands
Of humble heart
Her mind creates
Distinctive art

She’s Karima Osterlund, an abstract artist who hails from Dublin, Ireland. I encourage you to visit her on Twitter, Instagram and YouTube, to enjoy her extraordinary artworks and inquire about purchases. Thank you!

Intuitive
She paints by feel
As lines and shapes transform

A blank canvas
Is brought to life
Her gentle vision, warm
