Cloudy rainy day
Then the sun set crept through like
Tropical flower.
Art Prescription: Always nice when grey turns to pink!!

winter blues
Polar Vortex March 6, 2014
Sleet bounces off coat
Leaves shiver, abrasive wind
Early spring betrayed.
Art Prescription: Sleeting again in NC…on March 6th! Wildflowers are trying to bloom!
Snow Melts February 16, 2014
Snow recedes, gives way
To green and the sounds of spring
Cardinals call out.
Art Prescription: It’s chilly, and the birds are singing the winter blues. They know spring is around the corner.
Planning February 10, 2014
Start here, end up there
Brain thinks, spirit takes over
Expressive painting!!
Art Prescription: Sometimes the best thing is to take brush and paint to paper!! You may not be creating a work of art. You may be doing your body, mind, and spirit some good by just letting go. Expressive painting increases your immune system. Now go…and let.
Window to my Heart February 5, 2014
Calling on a ghost
I ask the past to visit
Yearning for my youth.
Art Prescription: I know…heavy. Seems Saturn has payed a visit. All good. A little self-reflection is a sign of growth. Hold on spring is coming.
Winter Rest February 4, 2014
Grey, cold, and rainy
Gravity takes over now
A good winter rest.
Art Prescription: Set out to my studio to paint a colorful spring forest. Reality took over and I painted what I was feeling…really feeling.
Prelude February 2, 2014
Prelude to spring-time
Young tendrils prepare for launch
And the chase is on!!
Art Prescription: Nature knows…
Farm Cure January 15, 2014
Warm sun hits my back
Barn cat slithers by for strokes
Roosters crow next door.
Art Prescription: I went out to Blue Skies of Mapleview farm today for some soul restoration. Sitting under the big blue sky with horses soothes my restless spirit. Took my sketchbook.
Holiday Blues December 28, 2013
Got holiday blues?
Cope with creativity!
Draw, paint, write, journal!
Art Prescription: As the year comes to close I come full circle with the intention of the Art Prescription. Creativity is healing. Making art boosts your feel good hormones and makes your immune system stronger. So…while you are making your new years resolution list…add something creative, like keeping a daily journal. Go ahead. Buy something pretty and just start! It will do your spirit good!
Winter Sky December 3, 2013
Big hawk swoops across
Winter sky, grey-blue, cloudy
Garden still and brown.
Art Prescription: A response to my day…blue and white.
