I’m part of a great barn family. Today I needed to pitch in and help with lessons.

The horses had my back!

Blue-gray clouds gather

Air hangs heavy with moisture

A bead of sweat rolls.

Art Prescription: Thank God we don’t have to wear corsets!! no wonder hysteria was prevalent. Women couldn’t breathe.

A full studio

Children’s laughter fills the space

I learn by teaching.

Art Prescription: monarch butterfly party in my studio!

Kids works:

My work in progress:

Life is mine, she thinks

Is mine because of good luck

I reached out, took it.

Art Prescription: Edible Flowers, good fortune….be grateful for all you have.

Watercolor sketch:

Deep woods, thick with growth

Birds call out from fresh tree tops

Gleaning for insects.

Art Prescription: Sam and I walked our favorite place, Mason Farm. Mid-morning is not as active, but we saw some great birds. I sketched along the way.

Nature Journal, pen and ink sketches:

Washing winter coat

The field turns out a new crop

The farm tractor smiles.

Art Prescription: how do you notice the seasons?

Hanging out in space

They depend on each other

For friendship, support.

Art Prescription: We are all hanging in space.

Trying to decide if I want to add a background to this.

Into healing light

The things with feathers and wings

Carry us with grace.

Art Prescription: For my friends near and far, there is healing to report. Thank you for your kind words and support, my dear friend is better.

Uninterrupted

Full studio afternoon

Just me and my paint.

Art Prescription: Love it when I can paint with my studio door wide open. Just me and the birds, and squirrels.
