The art was most masterful on the dark canvas

Within the thick of night his hand was full of sweep  
beneath the Muskan moon the artist quivered not
Etching silver dollar stars the artist took a leap
as he painted up the sky with orbs of sparkling dots

Celestial objects bright as light, a candle spark
moonlight, starlight, airglow, all a  work of art
Applying white on black creating a celestial ark
he mastered in the light with darkness off the chart  

Tinted colorants of amber midnight grains of gold  
every brushstroke took him, to a journey home
Van Gogh signatures and visions stories yet untold  
all night long he painted, from a sonic neo zone  

Light to dark, with different distinction
he played shadows with God's bric a brac  
Twas' a Masterpiece of fact and fiction
Oh !   He really had the knack !
