Mirage, illusion
Who is there in the mirror?
Is that you? Myself?
Art Prescription: Do you ever time travel? Art journal…it’s a messy one…just where I am.

Horse Grooming March 26, 2014
Winter mud blanket
A box of brushes leads to
A sweet posting trot!
Art Prescription: Pulling into the farm I thought, is that Doc? Yep, that’s Doc! The dirtiest horse in the paddock. And I loved grooming him and connecting with him before a ride. This time of touch and getting totally in these beings space before you ask them to wear a
saddle and hold you on their back, is prescious.
We are what we think March 25, 2014
Expect clouds, get rain
How you spend your day, your life
Adds up, the raw truth.
Art Prescription: Science is learning about our brain’s ability to adapt and rewire. This phenomenon, known as neuroplasticity, suggests there are concrete and provable benefits to exercising the brain. Doing art exercises the brain. Positive thinking exercises the brain.
“How you spend your days, is how you spend your life.” Think about it!!
Umbrellas March 23, 2014
Rain, cold, move in now
Scurry, shoulders hunched over
Umbrellas salute.
Art Prescription: One more bout of Old Man Winter…
Saturday Morning March 22, 2014
Stretch, yawn, and repeat
Wake up slow, no alarm clock
Saturday morning.
Art Prescription: While for the most part I like being up early, makes the day longer, it is on occasion totally blissful to sleep-in.
Horseback March 19, 2014
View from the saddle
Velvet attentive ears, and
Exhilaration!
Art Prescription: I rode Doc today at Women’s Intuitive Riding at Blue Skies http://www.blueskiesmapleview.us. Looking down at his beautiful profile and soft ears, I couldn’t help but think of what a spectacular view this is!
Quiet Woods March 18, 2014
My steps and tree frogs
Miniature waterfalls
Only sounds in woods.
Art Prescription: It is too quiet in the woods for a March day. After another wintry weather day, the creek is full and there is a steady drip-drop off the trees. Wet, cold, misty…why would anyone be out bird-watching!! I scan the trees for owls!! Saw a hawk and a cute little Kinglet.
Spring Clean March 16, 2014
Rain and cold move in
Good weather to snuggle with
Furry family.
Art Prescription: I continue to get things ready for spring… Watercolor pencil and ink on 3 x 5 index card.
Garden March 15, 2014
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.
Farm Fresh March 13, 2014
Farmer fresh produce
Feed family organic
Fruit, vegetables.
Art Prescription: We are so fortunate to have lots of organic farmers in our area. And three local farmer’s markets that make shopping local convenient and fun, including LoMo Market which travels around the triangle delivery fresh goods on wheels!!
