Capture pure essence
With a simple line, gesture
Sketch a piece of life.
Art Prescription: I love drawing quick pen and ink sketches of my cats! Keep a sketchbook handy and try capturing some moments of your day…a piece of fruit, a pet, birds at feeder, just keep your hand moving across the page! You can capture a lot with a few lines!
Sit in pure stillness
Disconnect from busy world
Notice something new.
Art Prescription: On my bus rides to and from my RN job just about every person has their nose to their smart-phones. No one is looking out the window to see the lovely flock of robins, or the way the light reflects off the buildings, or the simple beauty of a sunset. No wonder depression is on the rise! I feel like a Florence Nightingale of the 2000’s. I think everyone needs fresh air, exercise, and nature… Give yourself a Valentine…
Each day a new chance
Full of possibilities
Go! Embrace your goals!
Art Prescription: Perhaps spring is a better time to make resolutions. The days are getting longer, and the promise of new growth is inspiring! Hug your Valentine!
Below the surface
Spring networks, organizes
New cotyledons!
Art Prescriptions: A cotyledon is the first leaves of a seedling…first up for many spring wildflowers. While working on a multi-layered painting, I did a pen and ink doodle and colored it in.
Playground in my mind
Wishes, dreams swing to and fro
Sleep on satin sheets.
Art Prescription: Launching dreams requires adequate rest!!
On the forest ridge
In a mass of winter browns
Yellow daffodils!
Art Prescription: Walking in the woods this time of year, the changes happen in days. Seemed these daffodils appeared like magic!
Rewards at daybreak
Pink clouds and blue birds, light sky
Perfect stillness, awe!
Art Prescription: Just…well…the sky.
Too soon for roses
I imagine them, petals
Velvet glow of red!!
Art Prescription: Playing with some water-mixable oil paints. Roses…alas…maybe why February is the yearning of the heart month.
Beneath the frozen
Lies bulbs preparing for their
Surprise spring debut!
Art Prescription: I remembered today that I planted a bed of tulip bulbs last fall! Anticipation!
All jobs are not work
For example pet sitting
Paid in licks and love!!
Art Prescription: As a cat owner, 3!! I enjoy walking dogs! So I’m caring for two adorable, feisty, small dogs while their parents are in Ruperto Rico. I’m flattered to earn their trust so quickly!
