Daily Art Practice: Meditation + Painting (Part 4)
These batches were painted shortly after the 2025 Inauguration and LA wildfires. It was a rough few weeks for me. I used tape to create boundaries between chaos and clarity/focus. The tape physically kept the chaotic fury in their own contained spaces while I resisted the madness by choosing serenity and peace. My frustrations during this time also met during Chinese / Lunar New Year - the juxtaposition quite challenging for me to hold space for both at the same time. I used traditional Chinese red envelope designs to counter back the overwhelming feelings of not having power to make things better.
