Fresh green mistletoe
Hangs in stark winter trees for
Chickadee kisses!
Art Prescription: A little real…a little imaginary. Isn’t that what it’s all about!?!

Haiku December 3, 2012 Pansies
Bold little faces
Brave the cold to add color
To winter gardens!
Art Prescription: When the garden is covered in dried leaves and skeletons of last summer’s flowers, the bold color and determination of pansies, also known as violas, brighten my day. As I turn the curve to walk to my studio I’m met with tricolor faces reaching for the winter sun.
Haiku December 2, 2012 Winter Gold
Bramble, straw grasses
Frame the stark woods, winter gold
Pod menagerie.
Art Prescription: Walked Mason Farm this morning and put out a Haiku-O-Gram (anonymous art with haiku meant to brighten someone’s day). The winter landscape is stirring…browns, reds, and golden rods of many different kinds of grasses. Detailed seed pods sprinkle the meadow.
Haiku December 1, 2012 Luminarios
Luminary night
Silent streets lined with candles
Holiday season!
Art Prescription: Our neighborhood does an annual luminary night. A chance for everyone to celebrate their holiday of choice, and come together as one to light the streets with candles. It’s serenely beautiful!
Haiku November 29, 2012 Frost
Winter frost glistens
Shiny silver frozen dew
A white coverlet!
Art Prescription: Heavy freeze overnight. The lawn almost looked like snow, so thick with frost. Yep, it’s winter. What attracts your muse in the winter? Share with us!
Haiku November 28, 2012 Winter Shadows
Winter shadows dance
Cool silhouettes under sky
Periwinkle blue.
Art Prescription: Warm color, cool color…Winter shadows are definitely cool. Switch it up on life’s canvas for a winter mood!
Haiku November 25, 2012 Leaf Quilt
Beneath the leaf quilt
Wildflowers wait patiently
While winter performs!
Art Prescription: Even though the woods seem very quiet now, how nice, there is always a lot going on underneath the surface. Don’t let the cold keep you indoors. Put on a scarf, big coat, and mittens, and go out into nature! A red cardinal sitting on a winter branch is stunning!
Haiku November 21, Acorn
Cutest little cap
A seed that holds a whole oak
The modest acorn.
Art Prescription: Big things come in little packages, like hope, joy, and giving thanks!!
Haiku November 19, 2012 Winter Trees
Bare winter branches
Cradle last seasons bird art
Perfect little nests!
Art Prescription: The last of the leaves have fallen leaving winter sculpture. Bare trees reach towards grey sky. The labor of spring love is revealed.
Haiku November 12, 2012 Trees Aglow
Outside trees aglow
Burnt orange, red, and yellow
Indian summer.
Art Prescription: North Carolina fall…out in short-sleeves today. Trees are peaking in color. They seem to glow!
