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!
Hello visions, dreams
“Sew” a seed and watch it grow!
Infinity, joy.
Art Prescription: The Art Prescription is moving and shaking, and growing!! Watercolor, stamps, collage, and yarn!
Quiet on the farm
Horses graze, content, focus
Ears perks, my presence.
Art Prescription: I love walking out into a herd of horses. I watch them notice me with curiosity. Their ears perk as their awareness shifts. Herd behavior has deep roots for these prey animals. To have them accept me and allow me to enter their space is an honor.
Lantana, fuel up
Monarchs begin their south bound
Journey, Mexico.
Art Prescription: It’s heartening to see monarchs!! Perhaps the conservation
efforts to help them on their journey to Mexico is paying off. Several friends are seeing them in their gardens too!! Pen and ink and colored pencil on an envelope, with a few stamps!! Fun…
Has your address changed?
Some wander, blown about, seeds
Others grow deep roots.
Art Prescription: It’s good to know where your heart is.
Peace and happiness
Paint color one three eight O
And time to collage.
Art Prescription: It’s really about the simple things.
The veins of a leaf
Transport sugar and water
Branches, pathways, life.
Art Prescription: The veins of leaves and branches on trees mimic our vascular and nervous system. Gives you something to think about. Colored pencil, pen and ink, and collage on an A2 envelope.
Sunday, day of rest
A treat to get quiet, nap
Cat acupuncture!
Art Prescription: I’m not much of a napper, can never fall asleep during the day. I do relish laying down though and resting my body. With three cats, someone is always going to join me. Mocha, my tabby, will make biscuits for 30 minutes straight. Got a session of cat acupuncture and then up I went to the studio to play. 8 1/2 x 11 mixed media
A place for ice-cream
Rolling country where cows graze
Big, tall, grain silos.
Art Prescription: Took my blanket, binoculars, and sketchbook out to the country today. Plopped myself on a hill over-looking a dairy farm. Meanwhile people wandered into the store for fresh and local ice-cream cones.
Through open windows
Comes fall and winds of new path
Trees let go with ease.
Art Prescription: Are you wresting with letting go of something? Nature’s lesson this season is to let go and rest with full courage that new growth is next. Collage, pen and ink, and colored pencil on an envelope. I thought about using pieces of the envelope in a collage, and then I thought why not just do art on the envelope!!
