Cool and rainy June
Pitter-patter, rain on roof
Studio lights warm.
Art Prescription: I actually love this kind of day. So cozy in my studio with doors flung open to watch birds at the feeder.
I’m working on a commission:
Cool June
Sumi-ink
And Still
And still garden grows
Vines wrap their way towards the sun
Trees full canopy..
Art Prescription: With all that’s going on in the world, I’d like to offer up a moment of peace.
Sumi-ink and watercolor:
Still Air August 13, 2016
Dragonfly sits still
Air heavy, humid, summer,
Crows gather, pine tops.
Art Prescription: Went for a ride on Tobacco Road Trails. Yep, it’s hoT!

Corn Harvest (paint a bird) August 8, 2016
Crows watch from above
As one by one rows of corn
Disappear, harvest.
Art Prescription: And so the tall leafy corn once again returns to the soil, the precious seed harvested.
Index card with watercolor and my chop that says “hope”
Robins December 13, 2015
A flock of robins
Supervise evening shift
Owls begin to hoot.
Art Prescription: Love being at Mason Farm at sunset. The birds are foraging for their last snack and the night-time creatures begin to stir.

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!

The River September 12, 2013
Just be in the flow
The river runs to the sea
Float and be, let go.
Art Prescription: Sometimes the best thing you can do is to simply let go and float. Quit trying so hard to swim up stream! Do you even know where you are trying to get? So float, be buoyant, weightless…
