Sunlight warms the stall
Sweet oats, leather and hay
Fill contented nose.
Art Prescription: Pinto gets a snack after a cold morning ride. He was such a good boy today. Everything about being on this farm with fresh air and horses feeds my senses.

Ice Storm March 3, 2014
Winter’s fury, ice

Where all is quiet
Trees rest in the setting sun
A walk in the woods.

Bareback Horse February 26, 2014
Bareback on “my” horse
I feel each step Pinto takes
Nothing else matters.
Art Prescription: Started my Intuitive Horseback Riding at Blue Skies Farm today! To launch us right off with breathing and being centered with our horse, we rode bareback. Beautiful! My legs were trembling with nerves and muscles fatigue, and it’s all good. At that point it was just me and Pinto. Trust…
Learn from Mistakes February 25, 2014
Wrong composition
Learn from your mistakes and then
Just go start over!!
Art Prescription: So every painting does not work out!! Sometimes you begin and get to a point where you realize, “this is just not working.” Then you go for a walk and come back. Choose to abandoned your painting and go all out with color, knowing tomorrow there will be a fresh new clean sheet of white paper.

Asking for a sign
Spot an Evening Grosbeak
She waits for me now.
Art Prescription: Sometimes the good stuff has to wait. Has to wait to pay the mortgage, has to wait to pay college tuition, has to wait to pay the grocery bill…has to wait. I have a lovely Evening Grosbeak waiting for me to paint her. I will get there…for now a purple sketch.
