Cold, chill to the bone
Steady drizzle and down-pours
Early springs revenge.
Art Prescription: So we have had record high temperatures, and now we are having record low temperatures.

Seems Like September 15, 2016
Leaves gather on ground
Float on by, hit my windshield
And it’s still ninety.
Art Prescription: Fall comes in subtle.
Index card with watercolor, pen and ink, and my chop that says “hope”
Doors July 26, 2016
Doors beckon us in
Whether real or in our minds
What’s on other side?
Art Prescription: Is there a lock? Are we afraid? Are we brave? Are we curious? Do we want change? Well…

Motel Hotel June 27, 2016
Crisp clean white bed sheets
Air con set on sixty-six
Sleep till you wake up.
Art Prescription: Who doesn’t enjoy the luxury of a hotel room with loads of clean linens, and the joy of not having to laundry a single thing! Pull those black-out curtains close and after a shower, and of course room service, snuggle into a pile of pillows and sleep…and sleep…

Round and Round April 10, 2016
The circles of life
The up, downs, and arounds of
Being a human.

Saturdays March 19, 2016
Steam rises from cup
My morning is slow, leisure
French toast with my mate.
Art Prescription: Isn’t it lovely to have a slow morning? No rushing or appointments, running out the door with yogurt in hand. Time to sit with a cat or two in my lap, and watch the birds.
Little bit nippy, but I did head out to my studio to paint…

Cold Front January 10, 2016
Cold front moving in
Wind whips tree branches, rattles
Blue birds hunker down.
Art Prescription: What a fuss? Blue birds claiming territory so early? Perhaps a warm box seems like a good idea!

Memory December 11, 2015
Seconds of my life
Click by on the microwave
Quick grits are ready!
Art Prescription: And let’s remember each small thing. Lucky to have hot grits with butter, even if I did eat them standing up between patients. A bite here, ooh that’s hot, a bite there, more butter? What do elephants and grits have to do with one another? Hot grits…cute critter with flowers…TGIF y’all!

Shed November 1, 2015
As the trees shed leaves
So begins winter season
Birds sing renewal.
Art Prescription: As we begin the season of Yin, going into the darker days, I have a sense of renewal. Cleaning the clutter from the year…preparing for the holidays and my open studio.

Judges October 26, 2015
Sitting in judgment
The five ladies brood and mope
The Peacock shows out.
Art Prescription: Funny what comes to mind while painting. And I’ll show you some proud peacock later…
