Recreating my methodology. I approach this series of four works like an anthropologist. I reach back to my Chinese landscape journey concept and bring it to the front of the class. Layering upon it a decade of updates and all the emotions and data of this day and place, I recreate a new dynamic within the loose confines of my earlier discoveries. I press it forward and backwards simultaneously. I remain simple and light – could I even border on fun and joyous with a bit of wit and humor thrown in? Do I dare? Creating thumbnail sketches and collages of what direction I will go, I feel very settled and confident at this stage. But the pool holds the water and now I must dive in and swim. How I exit at the other end remains a mystery. For this reason, I am still free. Yes, free.

Like water dripping on rock, over time, progress is made. It is not in the one-off throwing of everything we have at a challenge that brings success. It is the daily concentrated simple practices and actions we take that eventually bring us to fruition and fulfillment.
