Sky at Twilight on Cape Ann MA Welcome to our Sunday post. Here we are sharing creativity of photographers, sketchers and painters. The photo above is for Post Cards from Paradise. It was taken last Sunday during an out door concert. The photo below is one of several of my 'begging bowl series' and is done in the Asian brush style. One order of Buddhist Monks, each morning take their 'bowl' out to the village and go from house to house for their morning nutrition. Whatever they receive they feel is sufficient. Expanding the concept to life, I am creating these bowls in various mediums to remind myself and others that what we receive each day in life is sufficient to our needs.(For more bowls see previous post) I am working on a new name for the 'begging bowl' and welcome your suggestions. What would be a good name do you think?
We are sharing today with: Sunday Sketches Post Cards from Paradise Your Sunday Best Creative Everyday Wishing you a fun and loving Sunday. Hugs and namaste, and We love to have you post your comments, thought, or questions to delight us all in the day ~ especially, ArtMuse Dog ^_^ QUOTE FOR THE DAY: 'If I have learned one thing in this life, it is that God will not tie my shoes without me.' ~ Doug Boyd |
Love your bowl, looked at some of the earlier ones they are great. Sometimes simplicity says more. A new name would be great as begging gives you the wrong idea. All I can think of is "bless you" bowls as the givers are really giving thanks.

ReplyDeleteInteresting - the bowl. I am not sure about the name but it could be something to do with how we each need each other - a symbiotic sort of relationship.
What a great photo. The sky is always an amazing sight.
