Eight o’clock, eighteen!
Blue birds line up on the fence
Ground frozen solid!
Art Prescription: Out to help feed horses. 18 degrees. Oh yea, I’ve got this. Warmed up quickly and enjoyed early morning scenes of blue birds. Art journal page…

Hello November 18, 2014
Getting to know you
I look into big brown eyes
Searching for a yes.
Art Prescription: Went out to play with Finn today. Each day we get to know each other a tiny bit more. This building of a relationship, of love and trust, is an amazing process. I’m so honored he is letting me know him!
Back to studio for a little painting. Watercolor and Sumi Ink.
Clouds Roll November 17, 2014
Clouds roll in, cold front
Drafts of air take leaf remains
I dream of poppies.
Art Prescription: Rainy cold day. Good thing the imagination can take you away!
Watercolor 8 1/2 x 11 with pen and ink
Piles of Leaves November 16, 2014
Scratch, scratch, rustle, scratch
A big pile of autumn leaves
Childhood memories.
Art Prescription: I grew up at 1205 Kingwood Drive. And our yard had big trees and lots of leaves!! I always enjoyed raking. I guess even as a child I liked the meditative aspect of being outdoors and being productive. The fact that I enjoy working at the farm where Finn stays is no surprise…3 x 5 index card illustration.
Mums November 15, 2014
An empty bird’s nest
Sits still against cold grey skies
Blue chrysanthemums.
Cold Front November 13, 2014
Late day cardinals
Chirp away in stereo
Broadcasting cold front.
Art Prescription: Bye-bye fall…winter is moving in. Time to pull out the hats and gloves for brisk walks. And I like it!!
Pen and ink and colored pencil sketch.
Occoneechee Mountain November 11, 2014
Fall trees are ablaze
Top Occoneechee Mountain
Panoramic view.
Art Prescription: Hiked Occoneechee Mountain today with some of my favorite people!! Beautiful views from atop of the highest point in the Piedmont! 3 x 5 colored pencil on index card
Steady Fall November 10, 2014
Three leaves per second
Float on down towards the ground
Come to rest at last.
Art Prescription: Fun holiday card making workshop today. I so enjoy seeing adults finding joy in art!
Meadow November 9, 2014
As soon as I leave
I want to return to this
Place where geese fly by.
Art Prescription: Meadows are my favorite spots. And a meadow with horses…well “As soon as I leave, I want to return.”
Watercolor, pen and ink, 5 x 11.
Full Moon November 6, 2014
Uniform, day wear
Unison, cows come to barn
Unity, full moon.
Art Prescription: All of life is a pattern. You can see it everywhere in nature…sunflowers, pine-cones, birds flying together. We humans are creatures of pattern. Watercolor sketch…full moon.
