Shadow October 23, 2014
Dark shadow and light
Both of value, no judgement
Balance, live in each.
Art Prescription: We all have our shadow side, the stories we have made up about our lives. It’s how we cope. The mind is a powerful thing! Art…….take me away!! Far, far, away….

Raise their head towards the sun
Shield against first frost.

Repurposed October 21, 2014
A life before now
Repurposed, a new pattern
Life, double helix.
Art Prescription: Many objects and patterns have multiple lives. A farmer’s tool cart becomes a magazine rack. An old bed becomes a porch swing. Old patterns cycle round…here is a watercolor take on IKAT.
Age October 20, 2014
Leaves age gracefully
In a riot of color
Know when to let go.

The rain fills the mushroom lid

Teen Boys October 15, 2014
Down the hill they go
Skateboards! choreographed speed
Practice makes perfect.
Art Prescription: Two teen boys in my neighborhood have been practicing for a couple of days now going down and around on a hilly path. Muddy from crashing, they giggle and try again. Just two boys and their wheels…no thought of the past or the future…just the now.
Clear Your Mind October 13, 2014
Farm entrance, dogwood
Cockle-berry takes hitch-hike
Horses in the woods.
Art Prescription: Both of us in need of clearing our minds, my friend and I. I went and led Finn out of the woods, rode a bit. Then we both took in the calm that is the farm, to clear our heads and sketch!
