Four sure-footed trail horses
The here and the now.

And a trail ride was sublime.

Sketching with Matilda November 15, 2016
Warm and cozy eve
Care for a special kitty
Sketch with Matilda.
Art Prescription: Those of you who have been reading my blog for a while know Matilda, the cat I helped rescue from 9 degree winter nights. She then found her forever home with my neighbors, and lucky me I pet sit her often as they are world travelers! I love her like one of my own, and when her parents are gone I sketch and read at her house.

Half moon smiles at me

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.
