Enjoyed the sunshine, trees, and water last Saturday at Larus Park ☀️ Took my watercolors along and did one of my favorite beginner friendly practices that always slows me down and helps me soak in the moment. All you do is just look at the landscape, notice the individual colors, and try to create them on the page. Simple, no stress, no masterpiece in mind, simply noticing.

Got my butt off the couch on this snowy day off in Richmond to visit Pine Camp! This is such a lovely city park and community center just a few min from home. The trail was awesome with beech trees and big oaks, and a little stream. Got the inside tour from Myron who told me all about the pottery, dance, theater, and art classes they do there. Check out their schedule online RVA.gov

Sundays are becoming one of my favorite days. I’ve been playing with ways to be present and fill my cup. This morning was especially restorative - perfect weather, leaves falling, watercolor exploration of a sumac (that I’ve always loved in our yard but never looked so closely to realize it’s a winged sumac), and listened to an old sermon by Howard Thurman and a little Trevor Hall.
