Red gerber daisies
Highlight in August garden
Truly late bloomers.
Art Prescription: And that’s okay. Better to bloom late than not at all.

Deep in the Field August, 10 2015
Tangle of flowers
Deep in the field where sunlight
Plays on soft petals.
Art Prescription: What a fun time I had today playing with alcohol inks with my art group! Thank you Farley, who hosted and provided all the new and fun supplies to experiment with. We used photo paper, alcohol, and alcohol inks. For an hour or more there was not a sound except for a, “wow.” We dripped, sprayed, doodled, and watched as our works took on a life of their own. Not for the exact of heart! Alcohol inks are discovery at its best!! A great tool to have in your Art Prescription cabinet.

Own Medicine August 7, 2015
Vines grew and wound up
Anything they could find to
Help them meet the sun.
Art Prescription: Busy, busy RN day…needed a little dose of Art Prescription for myself.

By the Sea August 5, 2015
She walked, scarf in wind
Down the quiet beach to home
Ocean solitude.
Art Prescription: Watercolor, pen and ink and colored pencil…dang trying to get that umbrella right gave me a fit.
Golden Ratio August 4, 2015
The leaves on a stem
Branching of a winter tree
An uncurling fern.
Art Prescription: And the butterfly knows where to go…

Crowded August 3, 2015
A pretty cute crowd
Small nest in a fern basket
Move over, my worm!
Art Prescription: Discovered this nest when eggs were laid. Now spying on the biddies.

Hummer in the Flowers August 2, 2015
Outside my window
Hummingbirds play, drink nectar
From lush, sweet, flowers.
Art Prescription: Where did July go?
Sunset July 27, 2015
Off into sunset
She flies, takes July with her
And leaves start to change.
Art Prescription: Ever so subtle fall starts creeping in…

France July 26, 2015
In the south of France
Sweet smelling lavender fields
The “Soul” of Provence.
Art Prescription: One of my favorite herbs!
Watercolor on index card, my chop says “hope.”
Symmetry July 21, 2015
Perfect symmetry
Rarely exists in the world
To the sun is rain.
Art Prescription: Nothing is perfect, nor should it be…
