“What stirs awe and wonder in people today is a sense of belonging and of participation in the great cycles of Nature, an awareness of oneness with life that does not shrink in terror from life’s natural completion in death. What inspires them is not the hope of a final separation from the realities of nature, life history and time, but a conscious and delighted participation in these realities — not the promise of salvation, but the reality of the homecoming.”

“To have faith is to trust yourself to the water. When you swim you don’t grab hold of the water, because if you do you will sink and drown. Instead you relax, and float.”

I'm happy to do my own thinking about this -- and it seems you are too!

Remember these from exactly a month ago?

Su Su Studio
Sometimes I work on the wall and sometimes I work on the floor, but I always work on about 10-20 paintings at a time! Enjoy these glimpses of my workspace and paintings in progress, all posted on my instagram over the past several months.
