Sliver of a moon
Sneaks in and out behind clouds
Lights my way back home.
Art Prescription: Enough said!!

Haiku November 17, 2012 Evening in the Woods
Owl calls out from woods
Eyes acclimate as light fades
Birds announce days end.
Art Prescription: Sam and I went for a late afternoon, almost evening, walk at Mason Farm. Lots of activity as the temperature drops and the sun sets with a dramatic pink sky!! As squirrels scurry to their nests, birds take last call, and the nocturnal world begins to wake.
Haiku November 14, 2012 Leaf Collage
Rich earth, woodsy smell
Steady shower of leaves fall
Ground collage takes shape.
Art Prescription: An early walk in the woods is good for the soul! Standing there watching morning sunlight stream in as leaves dance and sway to the ground is magical. I felt for a moment, oh no! what if this were not here! So quiet and peaceful there…like no other place.
Haiku November 12, 2012 Trees Aglow
Outside trees aglow
Burnt orange, red, and yellow
Indian summer.
Art Prescription: North Carolina fall…out in short-sleeves today. Trees are peaking in color. They seem to glow!
Haiku November 10, 2012 Seasonal Change
Red leaf nods to branch
Time for a change, carry on…
Days turn to weeks, months.
Art Prescription: The most constant thing in life is change. Seasons change, people change, relationships change…Success in life often equals acceptance and gratitude. One day at a time. I had a lovely day! Taught an Art Prescription workshop and here are my demo pieces!
Featured on Where Women Create
I’m excited to share this link to Where Women Create! They have featured me on today’s post! Thank you WWC team!
Haiku November 4, 2012 Twisted
Spiral, twist, and turn
Double helix that is life
Deep in the fall woods!
Art Prescription: Everyone needs favorite places. This painting, a new exciting size of watercolor blocks 4 x 10 ish, was created from a place near our home called The Farm. Lush woods and a bamboo forest. Pretty in all seasons! Find one thing that captures your eye and build around it.
Haiku October 30, 2012 Sandy’s Path
Prematurely stripped
Trees stand naked, Sandy’s path
Ferocious beast.
Art Prescription: My heart goes out to all in Sandy’s path. Trying to think of a way to raise money with art…
Haiku October 18, 2012 Sketch Break!!
Light rain falls, grey sky
Sunset casts pink purple glow
Pumpkins smile on porch!
Art Prescription: Busy day! Time for a quick sketch! Our days can easily get occupied by the demands of our jobs, family, etc. Taking a 10 minute break to sit quietly and look at the sunset, do a quick sketch, can bring peace and closure to an otherwise hectic day!!
