Kinhin's Quantum Leap of Faith

The Zen of Zero Point, Age of Enlightenment Series
Encaustic on Wood Panel, Polytych (23 panels)
16 ¾ " x 42", 2011
Kinhin is Japanese for “Walking Meditation”.  As a part of formal Zen practice, one must walk around the Dharma Room (temple) for about 20 minutes, slowly, quietly and with as much awareness as possible.  Each step, is meant to be taken with 100% presence of self.  As the whole world can be your temple, you may find it obvious to take a leap of faith, a leap of consciousness, as you come to know your true self.

The color scheme used in this piece was taken from a beautiful oyster shell found on the shores of the Potomac River.
