Digital Drawing

Is harvesting the Now, the given, taking it in, dancing with it, imbibing it, poison and all, required for growth and transformation? This mandala seems to be pointing that direction.

Bones and skeletons are frequent visitors in my work and in this series, along with birds, wings, nests. There is something essential in the skeleton that supports the body, exquisitely balancing every step in relation to the surrounding gravitational and other forces, protecting soft internal organs, and providing blood cells, including 200 billion red cells a day!

I just looked up this last fact which leaves me reeling in the seeming impossibility of the scale of this creativity.
