Where the sky is wide
Freshly plowed fields, deep orange
That’s where horses run.
Art Prescription: The beauty of the rolling country on my way to Blue Skies Farm http://www.blueskiesmapleview.us calms my nervous system. Hello friend…choose love.

Rushed Blooms April 8, 2014
In a rush to bloom
Flowers wait all winter long
For a few sweet days.
Art Prescription: Sound familiar? We rush to be 16, and then we rush to be 21, and we rush to get through school and “start” our life. Don’t know about you…but these days I want to savor the moment.
Weeping Willow April 7, 2014
Color salts wood line
Tender young leaves shoot outward
Willows weeping green.
Art Prescription: A picture a day would capture the steady push of spring via leaves. Winter tree shapes now have a halo of green surrounding them. Renewal!
Bees are Back April 1, 2014
Hey la bees are back
Flit, fly, buzz, zip, dart, and zoom
Wings glitter in sun.
Art Prescription: They come after blooms!!
Lost Lamb March 30, 2014
The lamb must be lost
Tiny wild blue hyacinths
Charm the lion’s roar.
Art Prescription: Hiked Merritt’s Pasteur today, a walk along a river that loops up and over a meadow. Saw lots of wildflowers and goldfinches. Still wearing my winter coat and gloves! The wind bites.
Bird Bar March 29, 2014
The bar is open
Black sunflower seeds for all
Line starts in the trees!
Art Prescription: Saturday morning…time to sit with coffee and watch the birds. And do a little sketching.
Horseback March 19, 2014
View from the saddle
Velvet attentive ears, and
Exhilaration!
Art Prescription: I rode Doc today at Women’s Intuitive Riding at Blue Skies http://www.blueskiesmapleview.us. Looking down at his beautiful profile and soft ears, I couldn’t help but think of what a spectacular view this is!
Quiet Woods March 18, 2014
My steps and tree frogs
Miniature waterfalls
Only sounds in woods.
Art Prescription: It is too quiet in the woods for a March day. After another wintry weather day, the creek is full and there is a steady drip-drop off the trees. Wet, cold, misty…why would anyone be out bird-watching!! I scan the trees for owls!! Saw a hawk and a cute little Kinglet.
March Lion March 17, 2014
March lion spits ice
Daffodils hang their heads low
With disappointment.
Art Prescription: Seems March’s lion is having a final roar!! Snow and sleet. And still I walk and look at what nature has to offer. Nodding daffodils…
Garden March 15, 2014
Pansy bed, new thyme
Dig, clip, prune, plant, and water
Spring garden arrives!
Art Prescription: Planting for spring sketching!! A whole new bed of pansies and violas!! Also added rosemary and thyme for tasty spring cooking. Markers on a 3 x 5 index card.
