When you walk your neighbor’s dog and have to give him a wash!

We are safe and sound

Last of the hummingbirds fly

South for the winter.

Art Prescription: I went out to feed the horses in the rain. They are doing well. Their instincts are strong.

Had a few hummers still dipping into my garden, but expect they will move along soon.

Art journal with collage, stamps, and watercolor:

Six little Posey’s

Vase with sunny blooms galore

Joy on cloudy day.

Art Prescription: which of these Posey’s do you like?

Tried different techniques…

Steady tv news

Restless day staying inside

Art journal release.

Art Prescription: Practicing what I preach, my art journal became a place of solace.

Many prayers for our state and families affected by Hurricane Florence.

Longest week ever

Preparing for hurricane

Safety be with all.

Art Prescription: We so take for granted our safety and security, everyday blessings.

I’m sending out hope to our state as Florence approaches.

My horse Finn thinks he has landed in grass paradise as he is moved to safer grounds.

Be safe my boy!

Fall meadow flowers

Sway in wind, pollination

Spreads next year’s spring crop.

Art Prescription: Mother Nature goes on with no control. She is of survival. Strongest of the fittest.

We can learn much from her…

Long gas station lines

Shelves stripped of bottled water

Hurricane Florence.

Art Prescription: As our state prepares for Hurricane Florence people are helping people.

We are all in this together.

Brush painting with watercolor, my chop says “hope.”

As this hurricane approaches us I’m worried about our home and my horse Finn. Keep us in your thoughts.

Big wet nose, sniffs all

Along the trail, picks up stick

Happy on his walk.

Art Prescription: After our walk, Austen sat with me on the deck while I sketched a bit. He’s my neighbor’s sweet lab who I walk when she has long work days. He’s a love!

Sketchbook with washi tape and colored pencil:

We browse the art store

New brushes, paper, journals

Shall we get a cart?

Art Prescription: I have to say that an excuse to buy lots of art supplies was fun! Tomorrow I’m teaching three art classes for patients and families for the UNC Burn Center. I’m honored to be a part of this healing event.

My van is packed with art goodness!
