Cone flower buffet
Acrobatic feats for seed
Lively Gold Finches.
Art Prescription: Seeing my garden go to seed does evoke a slight melancholy… that summer is stepping aside for fall. Soon the beautiful colors of the flowers will be replaced by showy fall leaves. Each season has it’s own gift. For now I’m enjoying watching the birds find a harvest feast among my Echinacea.
Ball point pen sketch with colored pencil:
We all are story
Shaped by our past, what we are
Listen, you will hear.
Art Prescription: The shear act of listening is an art. In our push a button hyped up world of texting and immediate gratification, do we really take the time to listen to others? I love my gadgets… and I also love slowing down at the farm with the horses. Really nice.
Alone in garden
She bends and grows, taking her
Place in the big world.
Art Prescription: Each bloom brave and important.
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.
College and pen and ink on index card.
The leaves on a stem
Branching of a winter tree
An uncurling fern.
Art Prescription: And the butterfly knows where to go…
Watercolor and pen and ink on watercolor paper.
Off into sunset
She flies, takes July with her
And leaves start to change.
Art Prescription: Ever so subtle fall starts creeping in…
Watercolor and Sumi-ink on index card:
Perfect symmetry
Rarely exists in the world
To the sun is rain.
Art Prescription: Nothing is perfect, nor should it be…
Index card with collage and pen and ink
Pollinators work
To taxi pollen from one
Flower to the next.
Art Prescription: The majority of all flowering plants rely on pollinators, a group of animals that includes over 200,000 species, including bees, birds, and buttrerflies.
Index card with colored pencil and pen and ink:
A field of white blooms
Penstemon digitalis
Blue Indigos sing.
Art Prescription: Mason Farm hike. Saw Scarlet Tanagers, Blue Indigo Buntings, Chickadees, Titmouse, Eastern Towhee, and heard a couple of Barred Owls hooting.
Index Card with colored pencil:
Birds sing at daybreak
The dark recedes, a new day
Long weekend mornings.
Art Prescription: Waking to my own rhythm is bliss.
