And still there are things
We hold precious with dear thought
O the heart’s wisdom.

Naked November 8, 2016
Paper patient gown
I disrobe for a napkin?
You in your white coat.
Art Prescription: I know it’s election day…hard to top that, but I’ve been taking my clothes off all over town, lol! Don’t worry, just my wellness visits. I never noticed all that much before how cold and uncomfortable paper patient gowns were until I recently saw a new physician who uses the real thing. Soft gown and a real blanket, how comforting. When you already feel exposed and vulnerable, it’s amazing how small things matter. Kept my socks on!!!

Westward November 7, 2016
Venus shines westward
The sun has called it a day
Trees shadow the street.
Art Prescription: Even the horses were restless and off rhythm today.

Time Change November 6, 2016
Half moon smiles at me
As day-light-savings time ends
Dark now so early.
Art Prescription: It’s only an hour…I will be in bed super early. Yay cuddle time!!

Thistle November 5, 2016
Flower department
The blue-grey thistle seems so
Exotic, simple.
Art Prescription: I did an art demo today at my favorite local store, Southern Season, a gourmet food and specialty item store here in Chapel Hill, NC. I was launching my Art Prescription Deck: A dose of coloring inspiration! The store looked beautiful and festive putting me in a pre-holiday mood. My table was in the stationery and flower department…perfect! I did live painting and gave away miniature works. The thistle was my favorite.

Early Vote November 4, 2016
As if a road sign
Would change my mind on the way
To mark the ballot.
Art Prescription: Lots of thoughts..

Deep November 3, 2016
Excavating self
We dig to satisfy our
True soul’s reflection.
Art Prescription: What do you find on your dig? Surface? Or are you brave enough to dig a bit deeper? Go ahead…be brave…

Fall Glow November 2, 2016
Rich against fall sky
Trees glow with their final burst
Season finale.

Enter Winter November 1, 2016
Cozy cloudy day
Made for comforters and cats
And hot chocolate.
Art Prescription: Not how I spent my day…well maybe the comforter and cat bit for a while. Went for a morning swim, worked on my Open Studio post card, and then Finn had a chiropractor appointment.

October Garden October 31, 2016
October garden
Lantana and cosmos brave
The onset of chill
Art Prescription: My cheerful garden is still so pretty. The butterflies and hummers have left, sigh… We all begin our shift more inward.
