Abstract sumi e Original “The Trigger” by Marilyn Wells

Abstract sumi e painting Original, Zen style, with ink wash and both wet and dry brushstroke work by Marilyn Wells was inspired by

"In the end 
he doesn’t
pull the trigger…"
-unknown 1879S

This is a quote from my only abstract zen teacher and friend, Alok, in Sedona. When he first read it aloud, chills went down my spine, and they still do whenever I read it. One can imagine an entire story behind this quote. Often an abstract sumi e painting is the expression of a feeling from heart and soul.

These paintings are each unique art works. Imperfections are to be expected and are the hallmark of original art and the artist's hand. Sizes of original mulberry paper painting may vary, each approximately 14” x 18” - mat size is 18” x 22”. Each comes with its own Certificate of Authentication, packaged in a clear sleeve.
