Seems this comforts me and each petal is laid with intention.

Listen to silence

Birds bid farewell to the day

Night begins to wake

Art Prescription: As we each search for a new temporary normal, I’m spending more time walking.

I love the Woods, and am particularly inspired by my neighbor’s tulips.

Very loose watercolor. May add pen and ink.

Final leaves rattle

A spring cold front moves on in

Tiny wildflowers

Art Prescription: During these days of fear and unknowns, we still ventured out to our favorite nature spots.

I field sketched with pen and ink:

I have to say that every painting and sketch I worked on today quickly became over-worked, chaotic, with muddy color and a terrible composition.

Sound familiar?

My mind is a-whirl with current affairs.

Just saying a little soap and water can go a long ways!

Diva the chihuahua spent her afternoon at the horse farm. Says she didn’t roll in poo, but we are taking all precautions!

All along the path

Sweet Bluets rise up from leaves

NC wildflower

Art Prescription: A walk in the woods this time of year means spring ephemerals!

Tiny blooming wildflowers who burst on the scene.

Once the leaves begin to canopy the forest they will be gone. Hence ephemeral.

Sketchbook:

A fresh bouquet of flowers is a most lovely thing!

Once they start to wilt and dry I admire a different kind of beauty.

Prayer Mandala with flowers:

No gas in the car

It stops, stutters, and hiccups

And then it is dead.

Art Prescription: Get some fuel in your tank before you run on empty!

A walk in the woods

To find fresh, spring, wildflowers

And marvel at birds.

Art Prescription: many spring ephemeral wildflowers are up!

Incredible sky

How many people notice?

Friday rush hour.
