Clear Your Mind October 13, 2014
Farm entrance, dogwood
Cockle-berry takes hitch-hike
Horses in the woods.
Art Prescription: Both of us in need of clearing our minds, my friend and I. I went and led Finn out of the woods, rode a bit. Then we both took in the calm that is the farm, to clear our heads and sketch!
Haiku April 30, 2013 Come and Gone
Another April!
Blue roses sparkle dreamy
Garden filled with hopes!
Art Prescription: “To live is so startling, it leaves little time for anything else.” …….Emily Dickinson
This is the way I feel looking at a meadow of wildflowers and not being able to draw each and every one!!

Faint from spring beauty
I grasp to take it all in
This one human life.

Haiku December 6, 2013 Winter Woods
Around golden bend
Lies a field of pods, grasses
Home for small creatures.

Red poinsettia
Dark green leaves, velvet blossom
Holiday symbol!

Haiku December 5, 2012 Mistletoe
Haiku December 3, 2012 Pansies
Bold little faces
Brave the cold to add color
To winter gardens!
Art Prescription: When the garden is covered in dried leaves and skeletons of last summer’s flowers, the bold color and determination of pansies, also known as violas, brighten my day. As I turn the curve to walk to my studio I’m met with tricolor faces reaching for the winter sun.
