Art Prescription: Sometimes art is right in front of your eyes in the many still-life’s in your home. Colored pencils are wonderfully uncomplicated and portable. You simply draw with them, wet with a brush, and the colors blend and come to life. You can also actually dip the pencil into water to make really vibrant marks. Get some and play…play is good!
