We all have story

Moments in time that shape us

Pride, success, regrets.

Art Prescription: I’m sad that with all the needs of humanity, that Americans are watching our leaders tear each other apart.

Calm as an orchid

She stretched out her leaves to bloom

When timing was right.

Art Prescription: People who raise orchids know that with the right timing and environment, orchids produce the most lovely and delicate blooms.

Watercolor sketch (may add ink) and my chop that says “hope”

Life goes round and round

Things we left behind follow

And then here we are.

Art Prescription: life asks us to be true…

Art journal mixed media:

Best friends forever

Two stray cats find comfort in

A natural life.

Art Prescription: If you have followed me for a while, you know that I rescued and had spay/neutered a couple of feral cats. A couple of kitten litters found wonderful homes.

I’m a strictly indoor only cat owner, but these two feral cats have a spirit not to be dismissed.

I trapped them and fixed them and now they live on free will,

They are quite cute hanging together as a small pride.

First pass…way overworked, no focal point.

Second pass I over worked the over worked! Where is my mind!?!??!

Then tried a few pen and ink details in frustration.

Painting as process

Emotions pour with color

Catharsis complete

The first day of fall

Summer stubborn to let go

Heat, humidity.

Art Prescription: We took a walk at Merritt’s Pasture. A pretty couple of miles on paved trail, then a loop up a hill for a scenic view.

We could see from watermarks and stranded brush how high the water was during Hurricane Florence.

Art journal:

I listed these sweet Posey’s in my Etsy shop.

Company of cats

Soft purr as breeze rustles leaves

Take a deep breath, sigh.

Art Prescription: Fall parties! celebration! Sound of brakes squealing!

Ugh… I’m such an introvert. I don’t like parties. I don’t like crowds. I don’t like loud music.

Watercolor sketch listening to the birds:

A poem for the trees

Who stood their ground into earth

Backyard sentinels.

Art Prescription: I cannot say enough about how fortunate we are.

Watercolor with my chop that says “hope”

Rain for days, Florence

Blessings for the flood victims

One day at a time.

Art Prescription: My home is safe. Sending many prayers to people east of us.
