One reason there have been so few postings on this blog
recently is because of our summer travel in China during July. We’ve had some
incredible experiences so I’ll try to relate some of those in paintings. This painting
shows two young Buddhist novices before a Tibetan temple we visited in
Northwestern Sichuan. I chose this subject because of the attractive young
children, but sometimes a painting has a way of transforming into a larger
story.
Here the story became one of looking to the future as
represented by the two young novices with the historic architecture and older
monks in the background, looking out at what is evolving or developing in the
years to come. We can all wonder about the future, yet in this complex culture
one can only speculate or dream, but never really know what will develop.
So that you can get a better idea of our travels, I’ve
written a six-page paper in Word format about these travel experiences that
I’ll be happy to email to anyone who requests it. To receive the paper please go
to my Daily Painters gallery and click on any painting, then send an email
requesting the paper titled “Incredible Travels in China – July 2013”.
