eastern influences

sengai Zen buddhist artist 1830
forms for painting from Bill Martin's website

astounded to come across this 19th ink drawing in an inspiring book called yoga art by Ajit Moorkerjee. lots of stunning works of painters exploring the use of symbolism, colour and geometry over the centuries

an ink on paper brush painting. The description includes 'the evolution of the fundamental forms under which we understand our universe and return it to its comprehensive form, from r->l evolution from l->r return'

the book aims to show the link between yoga, spiruality and art.
the images 'express in archetypal forms spiritual insights...ther are at once the product and tool of meditation'..

draw what you know.link to another blogger who randomly has posted many of the images from the book
