It’s hot out there, get some water girl.
“You expect me to drink from an equine bucket?”
Embrace Life
Walk slow
Look above
Embrace life.

Gardenias
White Gardenias
Sweet perfume in the garden
Petals velvet soft
Art Prescription: The scent of gardenias is unmatched. Their sweet perfume will follow you around the garden.
I did a simple pen and ink sketch on blue card stock…. just the basics, soothing.
Leaves
Many leaves for UNC Hospital Trees. Mulberry paper and pretty cardstock.
Remembrance Trees
I’ve been working with UNC Hospitals for years creating Remembrance Trees.
I’m so honored these trees are used in a process for healing as participants write on leaves which are glued to the tree.
I’ve created Four new trees during this covid pandemic.
Repurposed
Although I enjoy trying other styles of painting, today I repurposed my work from yesterday into a journal.
Made a totally cute journal!
Art journal with blank pages, bound with jute. I’m going to list this in my Etsy shop:
Paint like “…….”
Steal like an artist
Be inspired by someone else
Go ahead, copy.
Art Prescription: I’m big on copyright and would never try to sell a painting I painted in another artist’s style.
And as the book with that title, “Steal like an artist,” says, it’s okay to be inspired by other’s work.
Think about the great Impressionists.
So I’ve been looking at a few artists who do abstract acrylics, and here’s my take:
And Still
And still garden grows
Vines wrap their way towards the sun
Trees full canopy..
Art Prescription: With all that’s going on in the world, I’d like to offer up a moment of peace.
Sumi-ink and watercolor:
Blessed
The world is a bit overwhelming. This is a post of gratitude. My life is very blessed. I’m grateful for each day, my health, my friends and neighbors. My husband.
My animals…
