Walt Whitman's epic poem "Leaves of Grass" was first, self, published in 1855, 150 years ago. In 1909 Ralph Vaughan Williams completed "A Sea Symphony". He used Whitman's words directly in this composition for orchestra, tenor, suprano and chorus. The sea has been a part of my life for more than 40 years, I understand the feelings underlying these works. The following watercolor paintings are my visual accompanyment to the work of these two artists. |
