Riotous flowers

Think poppy, peoni, rose

Timeless, ageless, bold!

Art Prescription: Walked Old Mason Farm today. Saw Spring Beauty and Violas, dainty wildflowers asking to be noticed. I like to go back and forth between dainty and bold. Always notice and try something new…

Twigs, leaves, moss, lichens

Woven with plans for future.

This a bird’s nest makes.

Art Prescription: Birds are industrious! If you have a chance to look closely at a nest, you will see planning and construction. It’s very interesting to see materials birds choose, sometimes string or netting, a soft cozy place for eggs and then fledglings. A bird’s nest is a beautiful work of art!

Reddish-purple dots

Scatter the woods and roadside

Redbud trees blooming.

Art Prescription: In North Carolina you know it’s spring when you begin seeing the beautiful Redbud trees showing off their blooms. Flowers come in all shapes and sizes…what trees bloom in your neck of the woods?
