Haiku July 23, 2013 In Her Prime

The bloom, in her prime

Stood out as a tall beauty

Delicate petals.

Art Prescription:  I find enormous pleasure watching the life cycle of flowers. It’s a build up of anticipation waiting for the bloom! Then bees and butterflies, in love with color, greedily ascend. As the flower begins to fade, the delicate structure remains beautiful.

Her yellow suitcase

Is packed thanks to the cosmos

Wait, the sunflower!

Art Prescription:  I adore watching the bees hover around my garden filling their pollen pouches with yellow gold. They get so loaded down, and yet they move on to the next bloom and the next…clearly inebriated!  New wedding invitation designs!

Haiku July 20, 2013 Weddings and Thunder

Summer heat rises

White clouds billow with pressure

Thunder in distance.

Art Prescription:  As the summer heat creates storms, I’m finishing a couple of wedding commissions. These are especially rewarding to do. A new piece of art for the new couple, designed around their invitation.

Haiku July 15, 2013 Horses

Warm velvet soft nose

Smell of fresh hay and cut grass

Afternoon horse barn.

Art Prescription:  There is just something about being around horses. Their warm brown eyes and soft ears, majestic musculature, swishy tails, the smell of leather, and a historic relationship. We’ve long been bound to these creatures.
