September road tour
Bus leaves summer, next stop fall
Bags packed with color.
Art Prescription: Is the bus going to leave without you? Kicking and screaming…summer’s not over!!! I love the change of season. Another miniature piece. Artist trading card size.
Soft fur, round brown eyes
Hibernates in the winter
Fiercely protective.
Art Prescription: As the season steadily changes, so do I. The days are getting shorter. I look forward to cozy socks and fires.
Negative thoughts, weeds
Can wrap, wind around your heart
Suffocating growth.
Art Prescription: So I did a little gardening today…actually a lot of gardening. Seems I’ve let my weeds get a bit out of control. Natures gentle lesson to remind me to tend my thoughts. Pen and ink, watercolor pencil on watercolor paper.
Japanese garden
Cool stones, ponder in the shade
Pebbles like water.
Art Prescription: We went to the J C Raulston Arboretum today in Raleigh. Pretty place. Lots of different styled gardens. Need to go back with sketchbook. Watercolor pencil on a strip of watercolor paper.
Fresh watermelon
Amazing this grew from seed
Juicy red goodness.
Art Prescription: Colored pencil and collage on a 3 x 5 index card. Making a salad with spinach, watermelon, and feta cheese!!
Listen to your truth
What is calling you? hear it?
Going to answer?
Art Prescription: As for me…yes I’m listening.
Trail blazer bare-back
Even a little trot…joy
Fall wildflowers bloom.
Art Prescription: These are a few of my favorite things…
Ninety-four degrees
Summer digs her hot heals in
Begs the sun for more.
Art Prescription: Ninety-two in shade…
Dove soap and hair-spray
Things September doesn’t need
Changes gracefully.
Art Prescription: Still hot as heck…but September is creeping in with her subtle changes.
August Mason Farm
Miles of yellow Partridge Peas
Sleepy owl by creek.
Art Prescription: A lovely pre-fall walk around Mason Farm. Saw an owl sitting over the creek, waiting for dusk to hunt. So majestic this creature. She was so sleepy she barely noticed us. Stood for a long time admiring her feathers.
