To Be Idle is a Short Road to Death and to Be Diligent is the Way of Life
acrylic on canvas
The title is coming from Buddha. It took me several years to make this piece. (Well, I was not working on this every day.) I went two residency with this canvas, starting Bemies Center, Omaha. I finished most of the part at Djerassi CA. Yet, even today, I am adding elements sometimes. The left top Chinese character means "movement" or " to move". Silver part is a stream based after the 18th century Japanese master, Ogata Korin. Lotus flowers represents the enlightenment. Pain tree represents living. This is a large painting: 48" x 56" I am very happy with this piece.
