[水墨] 淡水&碧潭風景畫




Tamsui #3 / ink on rice paper / 58 x 90 cm / 2008

小時候有沒有去過淡水(Tamsui)

已不記得了

淡水的景色還算是蠻不錯的

(捷運可直達也蠻方便的)

有山有水有鷺鷥

有船有高腳屋

天空很大

視野很遼闊

和大家一起在淡水寫生

還蠻愉快的



寫生

在當代有沒有價值之類見仁見智的問題

就先放一邊吧

[小品圖] 胖達來了
























mix media / 2009

胖達來了


其實去動物園重要的是跟誰去 朋友說

也是吧

但如果意識到動物園其實算是拘留所的話

參觀時多少也會感到沉重吧

對於

沒能力改變的那些不美好

不知道該是最好的

如果要快樂的話

就要真正的快樂啊

在這種時刻

總是會想起朱自清的《匆匆》

隨著年齡增長

對這篇散文更加有所感觸

深有共鳴
