Canary yellow
High-pitched, sweet-song, melody
Likes thistle, Goldfinch!
Art Prescription: Taught Art Journaling workshop for parent/child today. The raw honesty of children brings a smile to my face. Fascinating, really, the power of art! Another Vision Board for me! Seems birds are showing up a lot these days…
She pecks at mosses
Beak full she pauses, waits for
His wings to say fly!
Art Prescription: Watching a pair of purple finches in my backyard…delightful. Clearly team work as she gathers materials for a nest, he stands watch to see that the coast is clear. A slight jiggle of wings is cue for them to fly off together for their destination.
Scent of fresh cedar
Brand new possibilities
Unwrap white canvas.
Art Prescription: Like actors who love “the smell of grease paint,” I love the smell of a new canvas. Cedar is often used to make stretcher bars for canvas. So when I unwrap a fresh white canvas my studio becomes scented with possibilities!!
Song birds with fledglings
Chatter about in the trees
Fluffy heads, new wings!
Art Prescription: Extremely happy to be watering my flowers and watching back-yard action. Chickadees, Titmice, and Cardinals call out to their mates and fledglings, giving them direction about their next move. Uncoordinated, fluffy-feathered babies land on our deck seeking food. A new generation of song birds, and fodder for new art!! My surroundings inspire my muse!!
Blue winged gem perches
Brilliant against brown-grey
About to burst woods.
Art Prescription: Walked at Mason Farm this afternoon. The ground is covered with wildflowers, and the trees with song birds. The Eastern Bluebird stands out like a jewel against a late winter back-drop. Their color is spectacular. Try and mix it on your palette.
Fly onto my page
Song birds sing sweetly of spring
Wings, light, and laughter.
Art Prescription: Try something new. I’m playing with collage!
