A grey wall of rain
Thundered across the meadow
Loud on the tin roof.
Art Prescription: Thunderstorms crop up this time of year catching you in a downpour.
Working with fabric: kit listed in my Etsy shop!!

This morning I headed out to the barn to sketch en plein Air!
I set up in the shade. Horses are difficult to draw. Lots of proportions and shading to get right.
When sketching, I’m mostly interested in capturing a gesture.
I worked with oil pastels and sumi ink:


Take a few crayons
Scribble on an index card
And paint with color!
Art Prescription: just scribble.

It’s a cat and mouse
A play of senses and game
Now, make your next move.
Art Prescription: I’m trying to maintain my sense of humor through these times.
Did yoga in my garage while our state is under weather watch.
Always a found feather gives me hope!

Caught in spider’s web
The more you fight, you tangle
And then it’s supper.
Art Prescription: So many metaphors here…
Life in this pandemic era is a story to be written.

A gift box! peaches
The scent of home-made cobbler
My Nanny’s pie crust.
Art Prescription: My favorite yellow cat Matilda was a super good girl while her parents were on vacation.


So lucky to see this duo at a stay at home concert here in my own neighborhood!

Today is tangled
Threads are tight, bits and pieces
Life in pandemic.
Art Prescription: As much as I relish keeping a positive upbeat, there is art that reflects our times.
Slow Stitching with fabric and embroidery:

Packing a lifetime
Downsizing into smaller
And one level please.
Art Prescription: It seems we spend the first half of our lives accumulating stuff. Then as we age we begin to not need as much, and eventually we need a one story home.
My neighbors are moving to a retirement village. I’m painting their house as a going away gift.

So, it occurs to me that I have not sat down since my feet hit the floor this morning!
I’m taking care of two neighbor’s cats and watering their plants daily in this heat!
I swam and walked at Hillsborough Riverwalk with a friend!
Listed a new Stitch Kit in Etsy and worked on a house portrait.
7 pm I’m in bed!!
