My master’s thesis, consisting
of eight pieces of art, was titled “The Ancient and Mysterious.” I
continue to find myself drawn to the tenets of Zen, the beauty of the
old, the battered, mystic, used, simple things of nature near the end
of life’s journey and earth tones that represent the make up of a
million different miracles. I would like my art to be described as “Wabi
Sabi,” a beauty of things imperfect, impermanent and incomplete; a
beauty of things modest and humble and a beauty of things
unconventional. I would like my art to be a tea ceremony; a place to
meditate; a starting point for the mind.
