Meditations in Art

Abstracted.  Simplified.  In these works, all the things that complicate relationships and communities have been taken away.  What is left are shapes, lines, and colors that resemble landscapes, buildings, and bridges.  The shapes overlap like Venn diagrams and fit together like puzzles.  Lights and darks show that differences can be balanced.  The peaceful images created invoke a universal sense of calm, reminding us to focus on core shared values that make up who we are and guide our thoughts and behavior.  

Viewing artwork can be meditative when you focus your thoughts on the artwork to achieve a calm emotional state.
