Blue Painting on Sky Walk Photograph
I came across this painting on a digital print from one of my sky walks the other day and decided to photograph it. I am thinking this is going to be the beginning of an extended series of painterly sky works.

Cloud Dance 07.18.2016
I am beginning to create images with creative passes in panoramic mode. The arc of the camera is like a single zen gesture. This group of images has become the basis for the show EYES TOWARD HEAVEN at the Brattleboro Museum and Art Center that runs from October 28, 2016–January 8, 2017. Images from a twenty five minute period July 18, 2016 4:33–5:08 PM while walking the Fort River Trail, Hadley MA.

Five Ways of Sky
World of Form, Form in Emptiness, Approaching Emptiness, Emptiness as Void, Emptiness as All Things Visible. This is similar to the ox herding pictures often depicted in Zen arts.
