Winter shadows dance
Cool silhouettes under sky
Periwinkle blue.
Art Prescription: Warm color, cool color…Winter shadows are definitely cool. Switch it up on life’s canvas for a winter mood!
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.
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!
I had a fun group this morning in my Art Prescription (Expressive Painting) holiday card workshop. We played with Sumi-ink and watercolors, practicing two techniques before going on to the cards. It always amazes me how each hand of the artist takes color and line to create their own unique voice. Here are some of their creations!! Aren’t these fantastic! Thanks group!
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.
American right
Freedom, choice, vote with a heart
No crystal ball here!
Art Prescription: Today I exercised my American right to vote! And I have to speak from my heart to say that in these times I wish I had a view into the future to assure me I’m making good decisions for those that go on after I’m gone. Like the somewhat innocent pageant contestant, I really just want world peace!!!
