January 23, 2013 / beverlydyer / 2 Comments

A place of your own

Space to spread your wings and fly

Private universe!

Art Prescription: As much as we humans need relationships, social media, love, and companionship, we also need space and time to be quite with ourselves.

Trill of wetland frogs

Music fills the lush creekside

Water reflects sky.

Art Prescription: Frog medicine is a call for rain, cleansing. Our forecast is for temperatures to drop into the teens overnight…brrrr. Take cover frog!!

Suit wet from last swim

Brisk walk into indoor pool.

Ah, the rhythm now.

Art Prescription: Indoor swimming in the winter is meditation. Stroke by stroke my mind wanders…Spring by the river!!

Silhouette in clear cold sky

Flock of geese fly, honk!

Icy limb glimmers

Prism of greens, blue, and red

Chance of snow flurries

Stirs fun childhood memories

A day off! to start!!

Art Prescription: The excitement of a winter storm warning here in North Carolina permeates the air. Bet the grocery shelves are stripped clean of milk and bread!! Kind-of funny, kind of real! Confession…I find myself looking out the window…is it snowing yet!!

Another grey day

Crawl in bed pull covers up?

Or paint a rainbow!!

Art Prescription: Human nature, grey-rainy days equals hibernation. The pull of warm covers and a hubby taking a nap….noooooooooo! So I went to swim!! Came home energized! Another “Stripe” painting. Turned it sideways for a little sunrise surprise!
