Analysis of The Artist Of Benevenagh



The Artist Of Benevenagh.

The art of painting is God
Given as is nature’s mist
But as a gift to some it
Is the greatest gift.

Artists I appreciate and I
Wish I was one but there
Is one of whom we
Should be aware.

Her name is Margaret and
Her art I admire for she
Has the ability to convey
Even the spirit of a byre.

Whether collies, ponies, ducks,
Sheep, squirrels, foxes, etc,.
Plus scenes of the landscape
And whatever is within.

Yes, her paintings are a pleasure to
Behold and a classic contribution
To scenes beyond and within our
Shores: the artist of Benevenagh.
