Nature’s Ensō
Stillwater River, Montana
2026

Per Wikipedia: In Zen art, an ensō (円相; “circular form”) is a circle hand-drawn in one or two uninhibited brushstrokes to express the Zen mind, which is associated with enlightenment, emptiness, freedom, and the state of no-mind.

Flanked by two simple patches of flowers, perhaps this is an example of Mother Nature engaging in Zen practices.

2026

Just a bunch of junk inside the grain elevator at Willow Creek, but looking at the shapes and textures without consideration of what the various objects actually are, it is somehow a compelling (to me anyway) abstract composition.
