Mini Treats September 12, 2014
Quick little hummer
Zooms up into trees, brief rest
Then back for more sweets.
Art Prescription: On my walk watching hummingbirds dive lantana. As I approached they flew up into the trees. This is another miniature art pieces. Watercolor artist trading card.
Haiku August 31, 2013 Fly
The freedom to fly
Sail above earth and water
Flap your wings, take-off!!
Art Prescription: Do you ever dream you are flying? Soaring above all…
Pregnant with Possibility August 26, 2013
He holds her steady
She carries eight months in front
Soon will be strolling!
Art Prescription: Ah, the life cycle…went to the North Carolina Botanical Gardens today to sketch. This time of year the flowers are starting to go to seed, preparation for a new spring, new plants. The shapes and textures of pods are interesting. At some point I shall do a study of pods. For now the flowers are still in bloom, and the butterflies, moths, and hummingbirds are abundant…heaven.
Beautiful Morning August 25,2013
I wish I could put
A morning like this in a
Box, save forever!
Art Prescription: A perfect morning and day…the reason people move to NC. Cool to walk and comfortable to work in garden. I actually did some very productive puttering. I’ve had my years of Bon Appetite magazines in the garage to go through and get my favorite recipes. I know it’s irrational as everything is online, but somehow those actual magazines represent a part of my life. I’m trying to practice letting-go…
Haiku June 25, 2013 Backyard Sketch
Backyard pen and ink
Hummingbirds fly by as I
Capture a moment.
Art Prescription: I love sketching in my garden!! Simply, sit, watch, sketch with pen and ink. Sometimes when you just sit still nature will come to you. I always wish, oh! need my camera…and then remind myself to just be in the moment.
Haiku June 23, 2013 My Studio
Bees buzz around Balm
Showy patch side studio
Hummingbirds zip by!
Art Prescription: Today instead of a painting, thought I’d share the view around my studio. I can look out my windows and see closeups of bees and hummers feeding from tall, red Bee Balm.
Haiku May 29, 2013 Fly By
Glistening water
Jets towards bird bath, hummer flies
Darts in, out of stream!
Art Prescription: This time of year requires daily refilling bird bath. While spraying clean water in the bath, and also watering newly planted impatiens, a hummingbird darted through stream. So fast! Just getting a quick shower! Here’s a sneak peek at some new check designs…

Backyard bird haven
Songbirds await arrival
Mini feathered friends.
Art Prescription: Season change brings new friends.
Haiku February 23, 2013 Hummingbirds
Small and lite they glide
Through the air on wings as small
As acorns, hummers!
Art Prescription: I went to a nature journaling workshop today and one of the exercises was to write about hummingbirds. Fun to learn some new techniques for nature journaling.
