Muse No. 3 Color Collection by Claire LaRose

Collect several (more than 3) objects that are close to the same color. Arrange them and take a photo, or do a quick sketch of the objects.

The Garden Musings Project is an open invitation to look more closely and broadly at our backyards, front yards and neighborhoods. Each week we’ll send three prompts focused around a theme – color, texture, lines, interaction to name a few. These prompts will include ideas to guide a musing or conversation between you and your nearby outdoor spaces. Try each of the exercises, or stick with one that evolves into a regular practice.

Every few weeks, we’ll have a live-stream conversation (via Zoom) to share our experiences, and to chat with artists, educators, writers, poets and gardeners from New Mexico and a far about their own practices observing and interacting with their gardens, landscapes and other natures around them.

Ways to Join: Participate at any level in the project is welcome. Try the weekly musings  as they come up in your social media feeds.
