New Way October 16, 2013
The cycle of life
Be open to a new way
Breath, shift, move forward.

Goldfinch October 15, 2013
Canary yellow
High-pitched, sweet-song, melody
Likes thistle, Goldfinch!
Art Prescription: Taught Art Journaling workshop for parent/child today. The raw honesty of children brings a smile to my face. Fascinating, really, the power of art! Another Vision Board for me! Seems birds are showing up a lot these days…
Authenticity October 11, 2013
Not sexy high heels!
The woods, farmland, dirty knees
Horses, dogs, and cats!

Fresh air studio
Door open to breath in fall
Working on deadline!
Art Prescription: My studio is total chaos!! Fun chaos! I’m working on lots of new paintings, so I have them spread out. At a distance perhaps I will know what to add next. Right now all of these are in progress.
Brave “Cowgirl” October 9, 2013
Stand your ground, be brave
Open your heart and just ask
What you need is there.
Art Prescription: Today at my Intuitive Horseback Riding lesson at Blue Sky Farm http://blueskiesmapleview.us/ my instructor invited me into the ring with Splash. I was to get Splash to walk or trot around the ring by being assertive, with my “energy.” I did have a little lion-tailed rope to give him a gentle butt tap, but mostly it was up to me to get this four-legged 1,000 lb animal to move. Okay, I have some real work to do here, but I did feel extremely BRAVE, and that is good. I feel nothing but encouraged by my challenges and am grateful for this experience. Here’s a brush sketch…

Subtle Season October 6, 2013
Steady streams of leaves
Twirl to ground, still warm fall air
Autumn’s subtle move.
Art Prescription: Warm day, but Autumn sneaks in.
Watercolor Wings September 30, 2013
A soothing series
Flitter, flutter, butterflies
Collection of wings!
Art Prescription: Taking a subject and doing multiples is skill building. You find out what works and what doesn’t, you can play with color, size, and composition. I’m doing these for a note card design for UNC Hospitals. Which one do you like?
