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.
Busy, busy, bees
Yo-yo over red bee balm
Fill up on the sweet.
Art Prescription: Idyllic July day. Spent most of it outside admiring my garden and then walked over to the North Carolina Botanical Garden. The abundance of flowers is intoxicating.
Feel content at home
Life’s ambitions surround me
Art, books, and journals.
Art Prescription: Your home tells a story about you. When you look around you should feel cozy and welcome and comforted by the things you have collected. A garden in bloom is a chapter of dirty hands and blissful spirit!
Programed to bloom pink
Roses explode with spring glee
Blush with rich color!!
Art Prescription: The garden is taking off now…roses, phlox, Gerber daisies! The roses are always so fresh. We cut them and bring them inside to enjoy their natural perfume. What’s blooming in your yard?
September roses
Late blooms announce season end
Time to rest, renew.
Art Prescription: Here in NC roses bloom sometimes into October. I know, we are lucky. I don’t have the heart to do the prescribed cut when my roses still have buds. But it is necessary. Parallel to life there is a time to grow and a time to rest. Fall signals nature to begin the journey to rest. We all need rest to renew…
