FULL LOTUS

When sketching among the ruins at Ayutthaya, Thailand in August, 2002, I used watercolor and graphite to make pictures on both sides of two 30" long x 5" high sheets of folded paper. I reproduced these two-sided sketches using archival pigments. I drew and painted with graphite and acrylic on the prints to convey the feeling of the small field sketchbook I carry with me when I travel.

This book is a meditation about creativity and destruction, balance and imbalance, peace and war, as represented by the rose colored paintings of figures seated in lotus position and the line drawings of the severely damaged bodhisattva statues at Ayutthaya, also seated in lotus position.
