We all are story
Shaped by our past, what we are
Listen, you will hear.
Art Prescription: The shear act of listening is an art. In our push a button hyped up world of texting and immediate gratification, do we really take the time to listen to others? I love my gadgets… and I also love slowing down at the farm with the horses. Really nice.
Tangle of flowers
Deep in the field where sunlight
Plays on soft petals.
Art Prescription: What a fun time I had today playing with alcohol inks with my art group! Thank you Farley, who hosted and provided all the new and fun supplies to experiment with. We used photo paper, alcohol, and alcohol inks. For an hour or more there was not a sound except for a, “wow.” We dripped, sprayed, doodled, and watched as our works took on a life of their own. Not for the exact of heart! Alcohol inks are discovery at its best!! A great tool to have in your Art Prescription cabinet.

The leaves on a stem
Branching of a winter tree
An uncurling fern.
Art Prescription: And the butterfly knows where to go…

A pretty cute crowd
Small nest in a fern basket
Move over, my worm!
Art Prescription: Discovered this nest when eggs were laid. Now spying on the biddies.
Index card with pen and ink and colored pencil:
Perfect symmetry
Rarely exists in the world
To the sun is rain.

Hottest days, summer
Hidden in the woods, climb up
A shady tree house.
Art Prescription: We all need a little place to hide!
Index card with pen and ink and colored pencil:
Ninety-six degrees
At the barn, my horse shimmers
Breathe, wabi-sabi.
Art Prescription: Sumi-ink and chop!
Birds salt and pepper
Summer trees with trill and song
A pop of color.
Art Prescription: So much beautiful green and then there, right there, is a flash of bold color! A bird.
