Sew what, open heart
You give and your heart feels warm
Does a body good.
Art Prescription: Never underestimate the power of giving of your time, your energy, your ear, your heart…someone out there needs you.
Mixed media with pen and ink, fabric, and improvisational sewing:
A palpable wave
It’s not what you expected
And not yours to hold.
Art Prescription: Each tree lets go of their leaves in their own time. And so even though the universe says, “there is enough for everyone,” they hold onto each leaf until they are ready.
Index card with graphite and my chop “hope”
In Lady Banks Rose
A pair of wrens seek courtship
Among early buds.
Art Prescription: If they choose to nest here, soon their home will be snuggled among abundant yellow Lady Banks Roses.
Index card with watercolor and my chop “hope”
It won’t be long now
Before drapes of purple blooms
Curtain the roadside.
Art Prescription: I know he saw his shadow…but one can wish.
Watercolor work in progress…
A meditation
A creative endeavor
A colorful day.
Art Prescription: No day can’t be undone by color! Did you have a stressful Monday? Print this and get your colored pencils out. Now, make it your own…and please send me your works bev@beverlydyer.com
Have Fun!!!
Bok-choy, crimini
Snow peas, ginger, and garlic
Superbowl stir-fry.
Art Prescription: I’m starving!
Watercolor 8 1/2 x 11
Birds sing final song
Cold night fog blankets the field
Light fades to deep blue.
Art Prescription: So there we were at Mason Farm all bundled. Then at dusk, as promised, these birds start to make some noise. Their dating dance. A couple of ” peents.” Then they take off into the air and make a symphony of sound coming down.
Somewhere in quiet
All things move forward with plan
To produce beauty.
Art Prescription: This is a recycled painting. Put it into the recycle bin, literally…and then kept seeing it as I walked past. Cut it up and used it for this index card art.
Testing gravity
For no apparent reason
She thought she could fly!
Art Prescription: When the knees and the concrete met, it was evident she could not. Coffee, however, seems to take flight until alas it empties it’s precious fuel.
I think I will stick to feeling weightless in the pool…bruised knees, bruised ego.
Index card painted with coffee (the cup I did not have) and watercolor pencil:
First day of new month
Almost seventy-degrees
In February.
Art Prescription: I’m not complaining, beautiful day. February brings to mind love. Usually cold which lends itself to cuddling, I’m kicking off the covers. Oh dear…sweet cupid, shoot me!!!
