Art story

 Once upon a time, there was a little bug. normally he lived outside, as far from people and all the noise and nonsense they bring.









One day minding his own business he scurried out of the rain into what he thought was a giant red tree. Instead it was a giant red house with a box that sat on the floor and made pictures and words dance all over it's self. Slowly and as quietly as he could he tiptoed around the wall to see what was making the picture and found long, black vines that led to a purring, silver animal. Funny, he thought, this animal has no legs, no arms, no eyes or mouth and yet it's purring.

Making his body as skinny as he could he entered into the purring animal through one of it's gills. It didn't look like the insides of any animal he had ever ventured into and soon his world began to change. His first step created a kind of an electric pulse.





Then every time he put his foot down different things happened, New colors splashed around him and soon he found that if he moved just right he could create some spectacular images.

Was he swimming in a chrysanthemum?

or was this a grove of tulip trees?

 

As his dance got more complicated so did the picture.

Finally his little feet got so tired that he had to stop. The animal purred on and lulled the little but to sleep.

When he woke, he sheepishly went back out side of the giant red tree and left the purring animal lay where it was.

Was it a dream? he questioned himself.

Home wasn't too far and he vowed he'd go back and visit, but for now he was happy to be back with all his brothers and sisters.
