Feel salt on my skin
Hear gulls laughing in the wind
Waves lap shore, rhythm.
Art Prescription: I could use a trip to the ocean about now. Long walks along the sand, listening to the waves rolling onto shore. Peaceful.
Barn Cat October 2, 2013
Curled in saw-dust pile
The barn cat nests in horse stall
Morning nap on farm!
Art Prescription: All the senses are awake at the farm. So much beauty to take in. Today I was particularly fond of seeing the barn cat rule. So at ease, so gentle, so, well, safe. I am working on ease…
Loss and Love October 1, 2013
Grief, like the ocean
Ripples or waves, knocks you down
River, salty tears.
Art Prescription: A sad day for me as a good feline friend left this world to another. She was a delight and my heart is a little broken. I pray for healing and recovery for her family.
Watercolor Wings September 30, 2013
A soothing series
Flitter, flutter, butterflies
Collection of wings!
Art Prescription: Taking a subject and doing multiples is skill building. You find out what works and what doesn’t, you can play with color, size, and composition. I’m doing these for a note card design for UNC Hospitals. Which one do you like?
Rest, restful September 29, 2013
Quiet time, Sunday
Sleep in a bit, wake up, stretch
Rest your weary soul.
Art Prescription: In a do, do, do society, have we forgotten how to rest? Rest our bodies, our minds, and our spirits. How do you renew? How do you tune-out the world in order to tune in to your core?
Changeling September 28, 2013
BE the change you want
Focus, awaken, believe
What does YES look like?
Art Prescription: To me YES looks like a butterfly flying gracefully over the sweet nectar that is life. And landing on a few flowers here and there to refuel. But always it’s about the sweet spot.
Finger Painting September 27, 2013
Open door weather
My studio, my escape
Breeze sweeps my brushes.
Art Prescription: And then don’t know what got into me, but I started finger painting. Squirting paint directly onto paper and spreading it with my fingers. It’s good to get your hands into a little paint now and then.
Chasing Time September 26, 2013
The challenge of time
More to do than day permits
The grace of the flow.
Art Prescription: I like being busy!
Galloping Horses September 25, 2013
A herd of horses
Come thundering across field
Majestic beauties!
Art Prescription: Watching Deborah Pearson-Moyers (http://www.blueskiesmapleview.us/aboutus.htm) call her herd of horses and see them galloping across the field for breakfast is simply a moment of pure magic! They were not visible out in the pasture, but her voice had them come over the ridge of the field in one big thundering group. She said, “Listen to that!” Yep she loves it! Me too!
New Friends September 24, 2013
New friends, like minded
Walk and talk as fall begins
A season for change.
Art Prescription: New friends…new perspective…change is good.
