July is fading
Perfect sunny summer days
Crickets hum, content.
Art Prescription: Two busy days at my RN job and doing a little art always gives me a lift. 3 x 5 index card art!

It’s a Journey July 24, 2014
Colorful journey
Air, sunshine and laid-back vibe
Relax and recharge.
Art Prescription: Tired after my RN day…found poetry. Yes, I do notice the “get-away” theme.
3 x 5 index card art. I love being able to do these! Brings me satisfaction to the most stressful days.
Botanical Sketch July 19, 2014
The Queen spreads her seed
Across hill and dale she reigns
With a crown of thorns.
Art Prescription: My Queen Anne’s Lace has gone to seed…fascinating. Ever look this close? I used my 10x magnifying glass.
Work and Play July 18, 2014
Essential play
What is your secret pleasure?
Snicker, giggle, laugh!
Art Prescription: To watch a cat hop and dance around, chasing a stuffed bird with shear delight, leads to giggles.
Bucolic July 12, 2014
Bucolic landscape
Cosmos wind upwards, gold flags
Cone flowers stand guard.
Art Prescription: Rode Lacey today!! Meadow ride across freshly cut pastures, bucolic. Then home to sketch in my own garden. Grateful for this day.
Summer Pool July 11, 2014
Summer pool, splash, squeal
Kaleidoscope reflections
Water sparkles, sun.
Sheep July 10, 2014
Wayward sheep in field
Find your way home safe and warm
Trodden trail leads you.
Art Prescription: Every time I turn into my driveway a wave of peace rolls over me. My home, my heart, my everything…home.
Summer Rain July 9, 2014
After summer rain
Air fresh, scent of moist, rich earth
Droplets on petals.
Art Prescription: Set out for my evening walk with thunder in the far background. Next thing I know the wind kicks up and big drops begin to fall. I arrived home soaked…and happy for my garden!
Vintage Hunt July 7, 2014
Ephemera hunt
Inspiration in a bag
Bits, paper, pieces.
Art Prescription: So, what if you got a bag of goodies to do collage with? A bag of random ephemera to take and do as you please! Art journaling, art collage, expressive therapy!
Help One Another July 1, 2014
Still, he laid in cool
I crouched towards him, this stray cat
Hand out, mean no harm.
Art Prescription: Blackie the stray cat is still around. He seems content to eat at my neighbors and rest under porches in the shade. He is still very timid. We are trying to see what we need to do to help him. He may actually be living the life of grandeur, free to roam, basking in the sun or shade, scratching real trees, chasing bugs…
