One of my favorite things…field sketching.
I took off with my backpack of sketchbook, watercolor pencils, and my water brush.
I hiked the trails at the NC Botanical gardens. So many wildflowers blooming.
I picked a spot and sketched;
Walked more for spring ephemerals:
She gives confidence
Mounts your horse to demonstrate
Shows you on horseback.
Art Prescription: the horse world is big, and the training community very opinionated.
In my limited experience I’ve found one truth. If your trainer cannot mount your horse and demonstrate what he/she is teaching then how must I learn from commands from the ground??
I want to know my trainer can ride my horse before she criticizes me! Giddy up!
New journal on Etsy!
Walked with good friends on a new woodland trail. Trout Lillies lined the trail and creek bed.
Home to collage and sew:
The blue birds of hope
Have landed in my bird box
She will build a nest.
Art Prescription: Nature is such a wonderful reminder of how life is so beautiful. Sam built me a new blue bird box and a pair is looking today!!
Tea bag art on fabric:
Life comes in and out
Of focus, clear then blurry
Decisions to make.
Art Prescription: watercolor!
Still have winter coat
Plus a layer of thick mud
How I cool myself!
Our expectations
Things we think reasonable
Will disappoint us.
Art Prescription:: life is full of expectations, from family, from business deals, from plain old you get what you pay for mentality. And then there is just pure fairness.
To brighten my day I did a little pattern painting:
Life gets myopic
We loose sight of the big view
And where we’re headed
Art Prescription: new art journal!
Bare branches reach out
Towards filling the Forrest green
Squirrels and woodpeckers.
