“emptiness
which is conceptually liable
to be mistaken for sheer nothingness
is in fact
the reservoir of
infinite possibilities.”
- d.t. suzuki

| 'nothing to lose'. mixed media with quote by pablo neruda. |
i've taken to
emptying
these gray days.
finding life in simple things:
the
pouring of tea,
the richness of silence,
the light in the studio,
the
mystery in the blank canvas.

| 'on longing.' mixed media on canvas board. 24"x20". |
“for artists,
like the rest of us,
sooner or later
notice
that the power of longing
is more durable than
the thrill of
possession.”
- francine prose
