Seed Pods October 4, 2016
Life ebbs and life flows
Bursting with seed, pods open
A new season starts.
Art Prescription: This time of year beautiful sculptural seed pods are everywhere. Reminds us all that if you plant a seed it will grow.

Dream Weaver October 3, 2016
A fall dream weaver
Work of spun art in hay room
What does your web catch?
Art Prescription: So if your web catches ease with a focus on gratitude and all the good things in your life… what do you weave? If your web catches stress and always looking for things to go wrong…what do you weave?
So like this spider who weaves her best web ever, can you expect good things to happen? Can you get away from the spider next door who says, “we won’t catch anything, it’s useless.”
Weave your web with joy and good things will come…

Ground Work October 1, 2016
As morning mist clears
We transition to present
Knowing we belong.
Art Prescription: I went to a workshop today at Blue Skies of Mapleview facilitated by Gail Todter and hosted by Deborah Pearson Moyers. It was about working on the ground with horses.
It will take me a while to process all I learned. These horses have so much to teach us about time, space, perception, survival, community, and above all instinct.
What if we went about our everyday lives trusting our instinct was right and true and good? And what if we all knew that we just belonged…and that was just enough?

Barefoot Days September 30, 2016
Flip-flap of bare feet
Last day of September now
Trees full of black birds.
Art Prescription: As the birds fly south for winter, children spend their final days running in bare-feet. Soon they will need a jacket and gloves. I love the changing of seasons. Like life everything ebbs and flows.

Tender Moment September 28, 2016
A mare and her foal
Tender moment by the woods
Motherly essence.
Art Prescription: Spent my morning at the farm riding Finn with my Women’s Intuitive Riding group. I always leave there floating on air, as if every worry in my world has evaporated into the ethers.
I think I’m finished with this mare and her foal. Feedback welcome…

Love Notes September 27, 2016
All about romance
You leave a hidden love note
For them to find love.
Art Prescription: After 25 years of marriage I still love a hand-written note from my husband! Even if its “put the clothes in the dryer.” In this day of digital communications a piece of paper with hand-writing speaks to our hearts. We see the individual and their hand, different for every person in the world, like fingerprints.
