GOD-BLESSED ARTISTIC ENDEAVOURS!

Imagine being really blessed,
The way some artists are,
Such that each painting has impressed
Each buyer near and far,
Such that a million prints were sold
Before such lives must end,
When talents proved as good as gold
For all to comprehend...

Just think of such a legacy
That spans a hundred years,
A treasure trove God meant to be,
A blessing that still cheers...
For only then could you explain,
Success upon that scale,
As dedication helps to train,
While others merely fail...

Imagine standing brush-in-hand,
To paint for hours there,
To see things through as one first planned
And yet with utmost care...
It's only as that destiny
Brings all good things to pass
That beauty's all that it can be,
Outstanding and first class!
