Four seconds to flame
Neighbors come out, winter night
Streets lined with candles.

Thank you to my local followers for coming to my Open Studio!!

Winter Wind December 10, 2014
I am listening
To the winter wind, trees sway
Year end moves forward.
Art Prescription: Winter is upon us…into the 20’s tonight. How grateful I am to have a warm house and heat that comes on at a moments touch. Blankets and quilts and fluffy robes…truly the riches of the holidays.

Cold, wet, steady rain
I peer into the warm stall
After the vet check.

Damn Near Perfect December 4, 2014
Dried hydrangeas
Their season of glory done
Form, “Damn near perfect.”
Art Prescription: I found out today that one of my favorite patients passed away. I just want to honor him here. He was a delightful person, and every time anyone asked him how he was his response was, “damn near perfect.” I sure hope he has a “damn near perfect” journey to the other side.
