Timely adjustment
Fall back, gain an hour, sleep!
Cats say “Dinner late!”
Art Prescription: I like fall back, gain an hour. My feline family says otherwise. Their little delicate schedules keep perfect time, and it’s definitely an hour later!!

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 November 3, 2012 Election
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!!!
Haiku November 1, 2012 First Light
First light, first bird song
Pink halo grows over trees
White moon recedes west.
Art Prescription: After a hectic 9 hours day at my RN job, just a brief while in my studio revives my spirit. My RN job is a dichotomy of much giving. Art balances my right and left brain!!
Haiku October 31, 2012 All Hallows Eve
Little feet scamper
All Hallows Eve, wintry dusk
Trick or treat bellows!
Art Prescription: It’s all about the treat!!!
Quotes from the night:
“Yoda’s coming.”
“Nice wig!”
“Explorimenting.”
“How many can I have?”
“My little brother would like a piece of candy!”
Haiku October 26, 2012 Fall Prism
Atmospheric mist
Captures glow of fall color
Breeze creates a dance.
Art Prescription: Grey days are best for fall color viewing. The oranges and reds are intensified against a blue-grey back drop. Fall has many moods…
Haiku October 22, 2012 Teal
A vision in teal
Lacey petals, butterscotch
Effervescent green!!
Art Prescription: Color is vibration! What adjectives do you think of when you see shades that get your attention? How does your painting feel?
Haiku October 21, 2012 Leaves Rehearse
Childhood laughter soars
Neighbors out in fall perfect
Leaves rehearse for show!
Art Prescription: As I took my afternoon walk, my neighborhood was lively with kids and families out enjoying this mild NC fall weather. Big blue sky, perhaps need a sweat-shirt. I painted with my studio door open…much to show later. Get out there while the weather is perfect for sketching or painting outside!
Haiku October 17, 2012 Mockingbird
Sits proud in tree top
Full breast gleams in late day sun
Master of all song.
Art Prescription: Mockingbirds have many personalities. They can be jesters or intimidating…or should I say imitating? A large repertoire, they enjoy solo performances. Other birds call out to mates, but the Mockingbird sings for the crowd.
Haiku October 16, 2012 Harvest Dinner
Black-eyed peas and corn
On the cob, of course, with squash!
A harvest dinner!
Art Prescription: It’s Tuesday, the day we buy fresh local farmer’s market produce on Lomo Market!! Triangle friends find a stop near you!! http://lomomarket.com/
