As a practicing artist and designer who is a student of art history, the poet, simply put, \u003cem\u003epaints with words\u003c\/em\u003e in his poetry. The approach and result are most often visual. It's no surprise that the book also contains several Ekphrastic poems that hold a work of art or the like as the subject or principal source of inspiration. The reader becomes familiar with art and artists, and the process of making art, through poems about painters, paintings, photographs, movies, and songs, as well as people of note, historic events, and elements in nature and nature itself. Just as an artist would, this poet takes the world as it is, and takes to heart what the Dutch painter Piet Mondriaan declares: \"[The artist] needs on the contrary to represent what is inward.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 92\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.25 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 26, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50340212179181,"sku":"9781734274240","price":16.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0020\/8918\/9441\/files\/yuheD7v4OK9781734274240.webp?v=1785123683","url":"https:\/\/www.webster.direct\/en-ca\/products\/the-art-of-painting-poems-paperback","provider":"Webster.Direct","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
