Artist Statement
The title of this piece We Blossom & Fade Like Flowers, Gather & Part Like Clouds is from a poem of the Venerable Mountain Hermit Shih-Wu/ StoneHouse, to Whom a Deep Bow is given.

I Livicate this flag to My friend of Many years & A Wonderful Flag Creator Herself, Hannah Fallon.

I also would like to quote the Ever Inspiring Being, Ursula K LeGuin, Who has been a Light for Many People over Many years, through many tough moments. Her words were in My head when I made the drawing that became a flag.

“To See a Candle’s Light One Must Take It Into The Darkness”

May any merit from this work being made or viewed or otherwise be carried upon the wind, in All directions with My aspiration that All Beings, without distinction, Are freed from Suffering, Sadness, Pain & Harm.

Om Ah Hum
