Art FLASH/ 55!

It is a New Year, and a good time to reinvent our FLASH Challenge.

This weekend, I am introducing Luke Eidenschink, self-taught, left-handed Artist/Illustrator working in ink, from Arizona, USA. Luke has kindly given permission for us to use his amazing piece, Moth-Woman, for our poetic inspiration.

If you repost the image on your blog, please give attribution to Luke, using the following link: https://www.instagram.com/luke.ink/

Feel free to pay a visit to @luke.ink on Instagram or Luke Ink Art where more of his amazing pieces are to be viewed, but not used for this prompt.

If you post your poem on Instagram, using Luke's image, please tag @luke.ink and mention him as the collaborative artist in your post.

There are no restrictions placed on this challenge: Let the image speak to you and respond in a poetic or prose form of your choosing: Literal! Figurative! Reflective! Narrative! Symbolic!

As an alternative, you may write a Flash 55 inspired by the photograph, or on a subject of your choice, as we keep the memory of Galen alive, and send our love and support to Hedgewitch, during her time off from hosting.

Luke's work is stunning - I love ink drawings, especially with a touch of myth, magic, mystery and darkness. Thank you for the introduction, Kerry, I'll definitely be exploring more of his work.

I have written what came, but am not sure it is equal to the art. I feel like i left my poetic mojo in my other bag, lately.

That artwork begged for some dark narrative.

I am too thrilled by everyone's responses. Each poem has given me a new angle and better understanding of how art is interpreted. Thank you to all who have contributed to this amazing collaboration. I hope to read more before the weekend is over.
