A Star

I first had the pleasure of meeting Robert when Maggie introduced me to Robert at Artworks some years ago.

I looked forward to bumping into Robert as he was always interesting, intelligent, articulate and fun to be with. He could take the mickey out of himself too.

He was honest and passionate. I was so lucky to see him paint on a few occasions and we chatted as he went along. It seemed the most natural thing for Robert. He usually wore his shirt saying 'Artist ' on it which always made us laugh.

I have two of his paintings. Enigma picture 76 and Freedom picture 73. Robert told me what they meant to him when he painted them which makes them even more special.

The pictures have and continue to give myself and others great pleasure. I think of him whenever I see them.

I am honoured to have met him. He was a rather remarkable man. I miss him too.

Not Forgotten

I wanted to pop by today

to share with you my prayer,

of the thanks I give for the memories

that are placed within my care.

For now you're safe inside my mind,

locked in with a special key

and it takes but the fondest thought

and your face is there to see.

When it comes to you that isn't hard,

I think of you so often

and no matter where I am or go

to me you're not forgotten.
