He picked out flowers
That would bloom while he was gone
She on his return!
Art Prescription: Helped do signs for a friend today. Her daughter is getting married. After 20 some years, I still embrace the daily return of my husband to our home. Watercolor pencil sketch on watercolor paper.
Picking a pumpkin
To adorn our porch for fall
Ritual color.
Art Prescription: Well this is just orange-luscious!! A trek out to the country for pumpkin picking.
Quick little hummer
Zooms up into trees, brief rest
Then back for more sweets.
Art Prescription: On my walk watching hummingbirds dive lantana. As I approached they flew up into the trees. This is another miniature art pieces. Watercolor artist trading card.
To swim, poetic
Pause to take a deep breath, stroke
Rhythm, flow, water.
Art Prescription: Was thinking today as I was swimming how poetry and swimming are similar. There is a cadence to my stroke, a rhythm as I kick my feet, a pause as I turn my head to breathe. For me this is a moving meditation. Colored pencil and pen and ink 3 x 5 index card.
Scars, blemishes, wounds
We all have them, our chapters,
Like trees we grow up
Art Prescription: Here is a total stress relieving piece. Colored pencil scribbled on a 3 x 5 index card. It’s really all about the process, not the end picture. Ahhhh….feel better now.
Goddess of July
Rays of silk, golden, yellow
Flower of the sun.
Art Prescription: My hubby brought me flowers. It still thrills me! As I arranged these sunflowers, I knew I had to capture them in paint. Did a loose watercolor today…will see if it’s done tomorrow, or if I want to detail.
Looking and hoping
Wishing, expecting, dreaming
Life’s many milestones.
Art Prescription: Life is a series of milestones…pregnant, new baby, preschool, kindergarden, high school graduation, college graduation, engagement, marriage….Celebrate!
She sashays down run
Feet hurting in those high heels
Gown takes center stage.
Art Prescription: Vogue, strike a pose! Or put on your shorts and pull weeds! Ha!
First anemone
Green grass squishes soft, bare feet,
In my spring garden!
Art Prescription: Go out and sketch in your backyard!! Barefoot!!
This index card, Haiku-O-Gram (™) is available in my etsy shop!
Blue barn on the hill
Watches over the horses
Redbuds bloom purple.
Art Prescription: I spent the whole day field sketching! Started at the NC Botanical Gardens and then to Blue Skies Farm in the afternoon. Bliss!
