Bye February
With your snow and sleet, long walks
Peaceful in the woods.
Art Prescription: We enjoyed a long walk at Mason Farm today crunching in the still thick snow. Just me and my love…

Snow Critters February 27, 2015
Winter snow vixen
Looks for a fine place to nap
Digs a cozy nest.

adorable…My Asian chop says “hope” or “rare expectation” in Chinese, and my name Bei Fu Lie.

Carolina Snow February 26, 2015
The world is muffled
All stands still and regal white

Delayed Dreams February 25, 2015
Time specializes
In alterations of dreams
It is not too late.
Art Prescription: As I went about helping to prepare the farm for a winter storm, I had a thought of wishing this love had of occurred earlier in my life. Then I realized it’s just PERFECT.

Winter Trees February 24, 2015
Winter trees rise up
Bare branches sculpted with snow
Winter wonderland.
Art Prescription: Woke up to snow. Kept falling most of day surprising everyone. Walking in the woods, sublime.

House Hunt February 23, 2015
Familiar song
He chortles from the tree top
Totally for her.

Farm Chores February 22, 2015
Hair salted with hay
Muddy hand-prints adorn pants
Makings of happy!
Art Prescription: I love being out at the farm in the morning with the horses. They greet me close to the gait waiting for their breakfast. Fresh hay is very exciting. The cardinals are singing and the clouds break into sunshine.
Pen and ink and collage:
This Town February 20, 2015
Been hanging round this
Town for so, so long, walk paths
Just like yesterday.
Art Prescription: As I walked to the bus, lunch in hand, I cornered the UNC School of Nursing. Been hanging around this town for a long time. This, it occurs to me, is my life…
Pet sitting for my favorite neighbor cat…watercolor sketching her while visiting.
Sketchbook February 19, 2015
Layers and bundles
Mittens and hoods, gloves and scarves
Morning on the bus.
Art Prescription: It was 14 degrees when I got on the bus this morning. A serious cold snap is causing even the bravest North Carolinian to put up their flip-flops!!
