A light snow dusting
Frosted wildflowers, spring trees
With a white layer.

Blooming vines twirl and reach up

Poise March 7, 2017
And always have poise
Calmness, serenity, grace
Choose to rise above.

Letting Go March 6, 2017
What makes you happy?
Can you clear your mind for this?
What can you let go?
Art Prescription: I think it’s human nature to hold onto things…material things, dreams, your past. But, what would your days look like if you simply let go of all that data running around in your head, and just simply focused on what you a good at, what makes you happy.
Index card with watercolor and my chop that says, “hope.”
Cross Wires March 5, 2017
Sunday morning drive
Early and roads are quiet
Just me and the crows.
Art Prescription: Alone time is the quintessential salve for busy life.

Background February 28, 2017
Foundation for life
We each lay down a background
And layer from there.
Art Prescription: Life is a story. Our backgrounds are important, but more important is how we layer our days, and months, and years. Author of our story…make it a good chapter!

Scents February 27, 2017
Scent of evening
Dinner cooking, clothes drying
Spring inflorescence.
Art Prescription: There is an Asian family in my neighborhood who starves me on my evening walk. There is always something wonderful wafting from their house.
