Delicate Quaker Ladies
April in the woods.

Small Town America April 12, 2014
Small town atmosphere
Kids, dogs, Saturday shoppers
Work hard and play hard.
Art Prescription: I did an art show today in Hillsborough, NC. What a picture perfect day. Sunshine, breeze, and people enjoying being a part of their neighborhood. One couple bought a piece they are taking to England. A young woman bought several pieces for her new home in Efland, NC, and another who is engaged to be married, picked up 3 works for her anticipated new life in Kansas! Lovely to meet my customers and see my art find homes!
Change is Hard April 11, 2014
Blue birds build their nest
Creature instinct. I muster
The courage to change.
Art Prescription: Change is hard and sometime necessary. Be honest to your heart.
Kindness Rules April 10, 2014
Turn signal keeps time
Traffic whirls by, horns come in
Rush hour music.
Art Prescription: Everyone is in such a rush. Tempers flare…people lose sight of what’s important in life. For what? Money? Power? …Kindness goes a lot further.
Choose Love April 9, 2014
Where the sky is wide
Freshly plowed fields, deep orange
That’s where horses run.

Rushed Blooms April 8, 2014
In a rush to bloom
Flowers wait all winter long
For a few sweet days.
Art Prescription: Sound familiar? We rush to be 16, and then we rush to be 21, and we rush to get through school and “start” our life. Don’t know about you…but these days I want to savor the moment.
Weeping Willow April 7, 2014
Color salts wood line
Tender young leaves shoot outward
Willows weeping green.
Art Prescription: A picture a day would capture the steady push of spring via leaves. Winter tree shapes now have a halo of green surrounding them. Renewal!
Owl April 6, 2014
Silent on a branch
Big brown eyes full of wisdom
Fine feathered owl.
