Open Studio 2014 December 6, 2014
Open studio
Warm, bright, space where I create
Welcome friends, neighbors!
Art Prescription: Today was a cold, wet, rainy day! And my friends and neighbors still came out to celebrate my open studio with me. Thanks y’all!! For those of you who live a little far off…
Moon Shine December 3, 2014
Under bright moonlight
I take a breath of pure joy
For all that is…life.
Art Prescription: While a friend came to help me take an objective look at my open studio set-up, she noticed my cut butterflies for Art Prescription Kits. She has a family member who is unwell, and she wants to send a butterfly every few days as a word of encouragement, sign of support. I’m so pleased to provide some pretty butterflies for this act from the heart.

Clean up on aisle one
Tangerines, nuts, memories
Holiday meltdown.
Art Prescription: So I had a meltdown at the Harris Teeter today…dang Christmas music. I went to shop for my Thanksgiving dressing and all of a sudden, right there in the fresh produce section, big tear streamed down my face. What? Get it together. Went to the bathroom…and then again shopping for rice…and nuts…My sweet husband came to my rescue.
I sure do miss all the people that I miss…and this Thanksgiving I have so much to be thankful for!!

Holiday traffic
All the fixings, loaded carts
Plans for gratitude.
Art Prescription: Wow, holiday hustle and bustle. My hope is that as we all sit down to share Thanksgiving dinner, we will also give thanks for the natural world around us. It’s pretty amazing…

Autumn Hues November 23, 2014
Catch a falling leaf
And put it in your pocket
Save for a study!
Art Prescription: I love the bright reds and oranges of autumn. And I also love the muted and softer hues of golden yellow, burnt siena, and peach.

Hello November 18, 2014
Getting to know you
I look into big brown eyes
Searching for a yes.
Art Prescription: Went out to play with Finn today. Each day we get to know each other a tiny bit more. This building of a relationship, of love and trust, is an amazing process. I’m so honored he is letting me know him!
Back to studio for a little painting. Watercolor and Sumi Ink.
