ABOUT THE ARTWORK
Japanese ink painting on rice paper, mounted and ready to be framed. I have painted this oriental orchid in the spirit of Zen and Japanese painting, showing only the essence of the orchid. The fearless composition highlights the delicacy of the flowers and the bending movement of the leaves. The quality of the black ink is deep and steady, and the ink play has given rise to different transparent gray hues. Size of the calligraphy in cm: 30 x 44,5 x 0,2 cm.

My artwork comprises Zen calligraphy, watercolor and ink paintings, and abstract calligraphies. My mediums are ink, watercolors and natural pigments on rice paper, mainly Xuan paper. I wield the Chinese and Japanese brush, preferably the flexible sheep's hair brush. Many of my Zen calligraphies express the Emptiness teaching from the Heart Sutra, which has been the original inspiration for my Japanese calligraphy artwork. Other calligraphies focus on the teachings of the Diamond Sutra, Platform Sutra, or depict Zen koan, Zen poetry or single kanji. In my watercolors and ink paintings I strive for a pictorial synthesis of the subject, in the spirit of Japanese ink painting, using bold washes and vivid brush strokes.
