Sensuous Rose October 4, 2013

Red October rose

Symbol of beauty and love

Scented, sensuous.

Art Prescription:  Love of roses and their tantalizing scent has seduced and intoxicated people more than any other flower! The fossils of wild roses have been found as far back as forty million years ago.

Flying Bugs September 22, 2013

Grasshoppers set sail

Over thickets of purple

Yellow Golden Rod!

Art Prescription:  Lots of flying grasshoppers today and dragonflies. Interesting behavior, dragonflies dipping their tails into puddles of water. They are laying eggs. Dragonflies dip and swoop,  territorial action…flying bugs!

Time is a Thief August 23, 2013

Evaporation

Into thin air! Where’s summer?

Time, she is a thief!

Art Prescription:  Anyone else feeling like you blinked your eyes and time has moved on? Perhaps this is one of the healing effects of art. You make a mark, there you have left evidence of your precious life!  Art moves us…

Haiku June 27, 2013 Ego

Job, calling, career?

Does your heart leap at new day?

Is your ego stroked?

Art Prescription:  At my nursing job we are hosting an undergraduate student program. Eagerly these young folks follow the surgeon I work for and try to absorb enough information to guide their next move in life. It’s so important to choose something that feeds your spirit and gives your ego a boost. And to choose a vocation from your heart versus what people want you to be!!

Haiku April 16, 2013 Hope

Hope is the thing with

Feathers. Did Emily know

How we would need this?

Art Prescription:  I’m working through my grief and helplessness over the recent tragedies. Though I try to be positive here on the Art Prescription, I also want to be genuine. My work today is an expression of this…be well…My chop, hand-made in China, says “Hope.”
