Chloe Vallance and Lorena Ferguson Fama finding balance before a morning drawing class
Blue is my favourite colour. Indigo.
In Rome I fell in love with golden green the gardens the water the river the sky on twilight sang with the colour of life lemon yellow leaves dance sun kissed luminous dazzling light falls clouds build lavender mountains above memories laid in stone marble like butter melting in the heat dripping rain drops heavens open. Levin lights up the city. Sweet scent fresh air. Cobbles glisten. I listen to the bells. The swallows look like fish flying in the ocean. I see an elephant. We feed him a carrot. You touch my hand. A monkey watches me draw closer we grow in time a point between circles. I will return to where I started. It’s not a race. It’s a run. Come on. Antiamo. Good job. Almost home is where we are together. People make a place feel like home. Love. Amor. Once amor. Once more the music carries me through a painting I drew sitting beside you on a bus that didn’t run. It was Sunday. Roses released inside the Pantheon petals fly dust settles layer upon layer a city of stories including ours. Watercolor paint flows freely swims deeply sings softly my love once amor.
