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…
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.
Appreciative
Real, beholden, gratified
Sweet, delicious.
Art Prescription: So much to be grateful for…
Envelope art.
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…

As soon as I leave
