Water.

I love water, large bodies of water. This is where I deeply feel that I am alone, and it is OK.

My Chinese name has lots of water in it, but I think that's just a coincidence. It's probably more related to the experience of floating totally alone in a dinghy in the Pacific off Baja California when I was like 3, or the experience of almost drowning in the apartment pool when I was like 4, or the experience of getting caught in a riptide in Half Moon Bay with the valedictorian, senior year of high school...

Equanimity II.

I started off 2009 by finishing my first canvas(es).

I told Daniel what the piece meant and he got mad at me for "telling him how to interpret art" so I will not spoil it for anyone else, except to say that this is Equanimity II, diptych (two 2' x 2' panels of acrylic on canvas).

Massive thanks to my patron Jenny for letting me work on these at Mosspink Studios !!
