The Great Square Has No Corners

"The Great Square Has No Corners" 41"x29.5" (Prismacolor colored pencil on BFK Rives paper) This new piece is a Lo Shu Square based on Black Hat directional feng shui. The directions are all represented by various symbolism and use of color feng shui for the proper directions. North, South, East and West are presented with the celestial creatures appropriate for the direction, respectively Black Tortoise, Red Phoenix, White Tiger and Green Dragon. In the center is the color yellow and a Kuan Yin, mother goddess of compassion. The decorative stylized lotus are derived from a 4th-5th century Japanese vase.

The Butterfly

Terri Baugh-Norman — Fri, 20 Oct 2006 15:33:09 GMT

30"x22" Prismacolor colored pencil on BFK Rives paper "The Butterfly" reflects on the transformative path taken to become the butterfly. In both Buddha drawings (The Caterpillar and The Butterfly - the how and the why.) the symbolism is related to transformation: the caterpillar, the cocoon, the act of meditation, fire (candles are chakra colors) and the lotus. This also relates to the cycle of life and the process of transformation all living creations go through during their life cycle. The Buddha is Mahayana Buddhist based Buddha teachings that the path to enlightenment can be achieved by rightful thinking and proper action.
