Tai Chi April 25, 2014

Busy hospital

Lady in pink does Tai Chi

People linger, gaze.

Art Prescription:  It seems hospitals have become like malls. Busy, people everywhere, employees, patients, and families going for lunch. The lady in pink doing Tai Chi caught my eye. I stopped and watched her graceful movements.  Watercolor pencil sketchbook…

Horse Trail Ride April 23, 2014

Through long green grass fields

Into the woods, by cows, geese,

Trail ride perfection!

Art Prescription:  Spring experienced on the back of a horse is bliss. Look down and see wildflowers at their feet. Watch their ears and eyes as they take it all in. You are on their back and they carry you with each step, mutual trust!

Hand-sewn Quilt April 19, 2014

Grandma’s hand-sewn quilt

Cold and rainy April day

Three cats, one hubby.

Art Prescription:  Today was a day for cuddling. I’m blessed to have many hand-made quilts. Both sets of grandparents were quilters, so after a busy week the Dyer family all piled into bed under one and took a nap…bliss! Watercolor sketch on a 3 x 5 index card.

Small Town America April 12, 2014

Small town atmosphere

Kids, dogs,  Saturday shoppers

Work hard and play hard.

Art Prescription:  I did an art show today in Hillsborough, NC. What a picture perfect day. Sunshine, breeze, and people enjoying being a part of their neighborhood. One couple bought a piece they are taking to England. A young woman bought several pieces for her new home in Efland, NC, and another who is engaged to be married, picked up 3 works for her anticipated new life in Kansas! Lovely to meet my customers and see my art find homes!

Choose Love April 9, 2014

Where the sky is wide

Freshly plowed fields, deep orange

That’s where horses run.

Art Prescription:  The beauty of the rolling country on my way to Blue Skies Farm http://www.blueskiesmapleview.us calms my nervous system. Hello friend…choose love.
