Bill Baber is a mixed-media painter and sculptor, who utilizes reclaimed bronze and fused glass to forge fragments into poetic compositions, shaped by discard and destiny.
I press my lids for novel roles,
with gray dew morning sight.
I redirect internal shades,
with highlights of the day.
I mix a palette's level spread,
a fix I do not know.
My patience tempers choice
and my play discovers loss.
Midnight role uncover
canopies of rest and reason.
Egos are unearthed.
Distant eyes soothe
our walks every day.
Across all the seasons
I watch the finch
feeding past the window.
Decisions with reserve
you flutter, aim colors,
and life gets better.
- Bill Baber
