Two streaks lightening
Race to meet across bold clouds
Thunder in winter.
Art Prescription: Do you think the old tale of “9 days after winter thunder it will snow” is true?
Cloudy days aside…I’m doodling flowers on an envelope!

Autumn Hues November 23, 2014
Catch a falling leaf
And put it in your pocket
Save for a study!
Art Prescription: I love the bright reds and oranges of autumn. And I also love the muted and softer hues of golden yellow, burnt siena, and peach.
Leaf Study watercolor 8 1/2 x 11
My blog art is available for purchase! Note cards too!! I don’t always list them on Etsy, so contact me with inquiries.
Thank you,

Playing Possum November 21, 2014
Oh so still on trail
A grey ball of fluff, oh dear…
Just playing possum!
Art Prescription: On our morning hike at Mason Farm we came across a seemingly unfortunate scene. As we got closer Sam said, it’s breathing. We circled around through the woods. As soon as we were on down the path, the possum took off to continue meandering in the woods. Nature! Full of surprise.

Morning Chores November 19, 2014
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!

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.
