Winter Sunset February 4, 2017
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 February 3, 2017
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.
Morning Rush February 2, 2017
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:
Hello February February 1, 2017
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!!!

Opinions January 31, 2017
Out in the big field
One flower stands up to say
Her opinion.
Art Prescription: Can we listen? Can we hear? Can we learn? Can we love?
4 x 6 watercolor and sumi ink with my chop that says “Bei Fu Lie” my name.
Mulleygrubs January 30, 2017
Case of mulleygrubs
Cure is a cake or red dress
Or watercolor.
Art Prescription: I first heard of “mulleygrubs” from Ginger Andrews’ poem “The Cure.”
“The cure for the mulleygrubs,
she tells my sister,
is to get up and bake a cake.
If that doesn’t do it, put on a red dress.”
It seems listening to the news is causing me a sure case of mulleygrubs, so I paint and paint and paint!! And maybe pray…
Soft Nicker January 29, 2017

To winter paddock.
