The Pet Instinct by clo-1991, literature

Literature

The Pet Instinct

Since evolution first dictated that there should be a vast multitude of varying species, genuses, and families, the animal kingdom, from the smallest molluscs and bacteria to elephants and birds began to develop intricate inter-species relationships, aside from the relationships between the members of their own species. These partnerships are ritualistic in the lives of both the giver, and the receiver, and most of these relationships seem to serve a deep biological or psychological purpose. Just as predation, breeding, competition and death For a few examples of this symbiosis, we can see the unique relationships between certain organisms t

Literature

Totem

There is a hole in my womb, Somewhere between my mother's wing And my father's eye, Though their blood warms me under the sun, Chill creeps when I stand too close. Taste, forbidden, Idolisation, taboo, Much too small, Much too young. The faceless mountains teach me, What I should already know, And I do know what is forbidden, Yet I want it even more. My siblings and I used to share stories Under your wings, We stole your feathers, we chased your rain. Now a different rain I seek. I saw you, the rival, Predator and prey meet in before the grass, Predator, cloudy-cautious, Prey, endeared, she can feel Her claws grow weak.

From Cave to Canvas by clo-1991, literature

Literature

From Cave to Canvas

In the vast time-line of art, one's mind usually sets the stone rolling at the beginning of ancient civilizations, the period born in 3,000BC, with the creation of the magnificent Egyptian empire, and the rich array of sculpture, pyramids, and the art that came with them hand in hand. However, this was not the birth of art; in fact, art had been first discovered in the aesthetic sense, as far back as 40,000BC. That is eight times longer than the period of Egyptian art until the modern art of today. It is undoubted then, that in such a long span of time, as humans were evolving from primitive ape-like uprights, gaining intelligence, forming t

Clothes by Poetrymann, literature

Clothes

Our clothes got lost coming home - I think they slipped off to Morocco, or went skinny dipping, you whispered in that bare skin voice of yours. Or maybe they are seducing the back seat of a taxi, daring the floorboards not to creak and the windows not to blink. Perhaps even now the shameless pink of your blouse is undressing my jacket. stripping my lapels loose and lean and my jeans are coaxing the red right out of your skirt and holding it hostage, or maybe the elusive cool of your shoulders is windburn and urging my tie to trap your touch. Besides, morning is crammed between my ears again and I don't recogniz

My Bio

Seeing the world of Nature through vivid colours, surreal dreams and a cluster of hazy thoughts, my artwork attempts to combine a great range of styles and moods. I aim to discover life through Nature's eyes; untouched by modernity, politics, and other defining objectives. I paint freely, and leave the paint to stain my hands. I wish to provoke emotion and thought in my artwork, stirring the mind into discovering its own intricate design, breaking the barrier between the 'invisible' artist and her passive audience. I wish to inspire, and be inspired.

Moving On

0 min read

Chloe Waterfield has transformed into Canidae Art: Canidae Art aims to stimulate the eyes and the mind with a unique blend of Neo-Primitive art, combining themes of Prehistory, evolution of Nature with modern concepts of colour and style. Canidae Art, a four year vision in the making, seeks to develop a new emphasis of the old in modern art. A deep gratitude to Palaeolithic Art (some cave paintings have been discovered which date back 35,000 years) has allowed Canidae Art to emerge from a platform of poetry, nature and history, entwined with a constant longing to paint. In the same way that the artist is influenced by the beauty, and cruel

Commissions Open

0 min read

Do you want a beautiful portrait of you and your pet, a Nature-rich landscape, a glimpse of Pre-history, or a twist of Surrealism to decorate your walls? I am looking for contemporary, exciting commissions to inspire me! Traditional Art I specialize in relatively small oil and acryllic paintings, though if asked, I will accept the challenge of the larger canvas. I am willing to paint on a variety of surfaces other than canvases/boards. I will even paint on wine bottles. I also use a variety of materials on my paintings (twigs, stones shells, sand, feathers etc) if requested. Styles and Media As you can see from my gallery, my typical pa
