I can’t sleep. I can’t wake up. The loose threads of an unravelling day brush against my hands and face. I go under. I tunnel through the day. - Joe Smith, Chios Zen Chicken is inked first thing in the morning with quick inspiration guiding the ink. The rake brush follows the curve of tail feathers. Later in the day, the ink is dry, in come the rubber stamps. The archival stamp pad ink is dry. It’s time to finger paint vermilion acrylgouache. Finally, the white h completes me. Zen Chicken joins the flock. Zen Chickens are a daily creative ritual that I hope makes you feel like engaging your creative options from morning to night.

Honoria Starbuck (Miami, Florida) grew up on Key Biscayne, an island off the coast of Miami. She studied art and art history at the University of Texas and holds an interdisciplinary PhD in Fine Arts, Communications, and Education. Honoria is influenced by art history stretching back to cave art. The zen chicken series is specifically influenced by expressive calligraphic artists and the asemic writing movement. Zen chickens also stem from the abstraction of Ikebana, the flowing flowers of Emile Nolde, the frottage of Max Ernst, the eye of Man Ray and Dada, the diffusion of ink by George Grosz, as well as current events. In addition, Honoria’s artwork is a form of moving meditation closely related to her 14-year practice of tai chi. Honoria has decades of diverse experiences as a Mail Artist in the international Correspondence Art Network through which her work has been exhibited in over 400 exhibitions including twice in the Venice Biennale. Honoria has also worked in Internet art creating the first Internet opera (1995) which was recognized by the Global Bangemann Challenge for innovation. Honoria’s theme is flow. Flow connects the molecules of pigment into patterns on the paper and intellectual themes flow from one individual artwork into the next. The Zen Chicken theme has a strong current of humor and flexibility as the dilettante rooster roams through a wide range of entanglements from Japanese flower arranging to modern art. Honoria is a professor of practice in the Art and Entertainment Technology Department in the College of Fine Art at The University of Texas at Austin.
