once again I am sitting waiting to travel - spare time on my hands so started humming a tune - this is a "poem" but I think if you were a Frank Sinatra-like crooner you could sing it - which is what it is meant to be - lyrics for a deep baritone singer -I can hear it now being sung in my head backed by a big band orchestra - the plight of the Cathedral of Notre Dame can only have sickened all who witnessed it - to see such a sight splashed all over the news - poor Paris - so moved am I that it drew me to write this - the French certainly have had their share of sadness in recent years - I have walked by Notre Dame many times but have never had sufficient resources to purchase a ticket and then the patience to wait in line for hours - tourism has never been my draw - I am a traveller first and foremost - so the sheer sight of the magnificent exterior was enough for me to delight in - sad to say that I will never be able to witness first hand the interior - but that is life - as Dust In The Wind suggested - "all we do crumbles to the ground though we refuse to see" - it is true - no matter how magnificent and long-lasting our creations are they inevitably succumb to time - decay and crumble back to the ground regardless of how sturdy we have built them "to last" - there is definite degrees of pathos in the burning of Notre Dame but it is at once an inevitability and a reality of all that we build and do ... my thoughts are with you Paris and the burden bourne by such sad circumstances

Canada

Glenn Michael Morley is a Canadian painter and photographer who discovered his passion for art unexpectedly. Born in Canada, he earned a degree in mathematics and history at the University of Toronto, before working as a product development engineer. Yet despite this professional background, Glenn always appreciated the work of the Impressionists, especially Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir and Camille Pissarro, as well as artists like Louis David and Raoul Dufy.

It was in Lowell, Massachusetts, in the United States, that Glenn decided to take up painting. One very cold day, he came across van Gogh's Gear art store, run by artist Steve Syverson. Having no background in oil painting, he asked shop regulars for recommendations and left with enough paint, an easel, canvases and brushes to begin painting. He then lived in an old industrial building converted into a condominium, with 28-foot-high ceilings and a large window overlooking the city's man-made canal. The soft and unique light of this place inspired Glenn to create much of his work, which is often imbued with the ambiance of this place.

The first work he did, "Mother of Pearl", was created simply by letting inspiration guide colors. Glenn never took painting lessons because he felt the technique could too often stifle creativity and emotions. He wanted to focus on color and let his creativity run free, not trying to imitate a past style or create something with a specific meaning or meaning. For him, the important thing was to create colors and to be guided by the rhythm and the movement of his arms.

Today, Glenn Michael Morley is an accomplished artist, whose work is infused with his passion for color and creativity. He believes that location and environment have an impact on his work, as they influence his mood and emotions, which are then reflected in his painting.
