Curled in saw-dust pile

The barn cat nests in horse stall

Morning nap on farm!

Art Prescription:  All the senses are awake at the farm. So much beauty to take in. Today I was particularly fond of seeing the barn cat rule. So at ease, so gentle, so, well, safe. I am working on ease…

A soothing series

Flitter, flutter, butterflies

Collection of wings!

Art Prescription:  Taking a subject and doing multiples is skill building. You find out what works and what doesn’t, you can play with color, size, and composition.  I’m doing these for a note card design for UNC Hospitals. Which one do you like?

Rest, restful September 29, 2013

Quiet time, Sunday

Sleep in a bit, wake up, stretch

Rest your weary soul.

Art Prescription:  In a do, do, do society, have we forgotten how to rest? Rest our bodies, our minds, and our spirits. How do you renew? How do you tune-out the world in order to tune in to your core?

Black and white and gray

The world is neither, but a

Beautiful mixture!

Art Prescription:  Slept with my black ink pen last night…talk about the pea and the princess. The hazard of bedtime journaling.  Well, just suffice it to say that I totally went to the drug store to buy “White Rain” hairspray. Let’s hope that works to get the ink out of the sheets. In the meantime thought some black and white art just seemed right!
