The past week or so has really grounded me and I finally feel as though I’ve moved back into my apartment. I’ve reconstructed my tsuboniwa complete with koi. I’ve made more time for tea and meditation and I had an itch to paint again. This time I used a rather large canvas. It is kinda funny that even though I’m happy and feel peaceful, my painting turned out to be dark. In fact, I’m noticing that any art I engage in seems to take on a dark feel for some reason! Anyway, here’s the new painting:

I think I’ll hang it in my office tomorrow.
