Laundry Day
Nature is born of necessity. The Dao is simplicity.
Mountain Study No. 2
Orange light. As above, so below.
Mountain Study No. 1
I spend a lot of time on Unsplash looking for beautiful photos. I like to save landscape photos that catch my eye to use for color studies. This is my first study in Procreate. I especially love the color palette: the bright ochre foreground and soft very dark green middle ground with the white peaks of the mountain in the distance.

Zen art observes man as a part of the landscape. The landscapes often imaginary as if emerging from the mist. Man is a part of nature and his work is a meaningful part of the whole.
Citrus
An imaginary study of color and light. My brother noted the Japanese influence, which had not occurred to me while making it. I was focused on squeezing as much juice out of the color as possible that the subject matter was just a means to an end. Magenta and orange is my favorite color relationship.
Dragon Line
Dragon Lines (or Ley Lines) are the ancient ridges and pathways traced by our ancestors. In Sumi-e, the mountain is drawn by its dragon line. Here I followed this principle using soft pastel textures and colors.
Sailor
Drawn with my left hand. I was thinking of Picasso in his striped shirt and how he draws the eyes first. My first drawing in Procreate.
