Abstract sumi e Original “My Blossoming Heart” 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 the Monk Kengú...

“True, I may appear
unkempt like a rotting tree,
jetsam and flotsam,
but on the right occasion
this old heart
can still blossom.”
The Monk Kengú 1874S

This poem tells us of the spirit that is within. There are times we even recognize one another through spirit, heart to heart, and the physical appearance is secondary to this recognition of souls.

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.
