All the leaves are brown

And the sky is gray, dreaming

Such a winter day.

Art Prescription: A walk down vintage lane…strike a pose.

Start here, end up there

Brain thinks, spirit takes over

Expressive painting!!

Art Prescription: Sometimes the best thing is to take brush and paint to paper!! You may not be creating a work of art. You may be doing your body, mind, and spirit some good by just letting go. Expressive painting increases your immune system. Now go…and let.

Flicker in the trees

Set sight with binocular

Songbird, dogwood buds.

Afraid to let go

Beech trees hold on to their leaves

Golden glow in winter.

Art Prescription: Lovely day. Hiked about four miles and saw a Kinglet!! (future painting) Spent some time field sketching, then back to studio to add watercolor. This is a work in progress.

Calling on a ghost

I ask the past to visit

Yearning for my youth.

Art Prescription: I know…heavy. Seems Saturn has payed a visit. All good. A little self-reflection is a sign of growth. Hold on spring is coming.

Grey, cold, and rainy

Gravity takes over now

A good winter rest.

Art Prescription: Set out to my studio to paint a colorful spring forest. Reality took over and I painted what I was feeling…really feeling.

Love is February 3, 2014

February 3, 2014 / beverlydyer / 1 Comment

Love is in the air

Along with hot and cold waves

Birds look for houses.

Art Prescription: The weather goes up and down like a roller-coaster. Warm front…arctic blast. My layers of coats and jackets hang ready in the closet. Meanwhile, the birds seem to be right on track.
