The Painting of A Praise-worthy Painter

From the canvass
  to the easel,
The genesis
  of this showpiece.

What fine medium -
  a heedful choice.
A matchless craft
  the lifework is.

A tree, a bird
  or flow'r maybe -
What better sight
  can parallel?

Will you ever
  see a treasure
As intricate
  and statuesque


This masterpiece
  O yet unsigned
Anticipate
  the final touch.
