Spring Newsletter: Back from an existential hiatus sharing cosmic news and 2017 highlights

Vegan/Vegetarian Kitchen Chef Apprenticeship @ Green Gulch Zen Center and Organic Farm, Muir Beach, California  Art, Nature, Food, and Meditation Cures all that Ails You

Since February - end of October 2017, much time was spent meditating at the nature refuge Green Gulch Zen Center & Farm in Muir Beach, California just north of San Francisco.  In July, I became a full time vegan/vegetarian chef apprentice in the zen kitchen tradition while living amongst the monks studying the Bohdisattava path.  Visiting the beach nearly every day, hiking up the hills and being without cell reception nor reliable wifi plugged me directly into the healing powers of nature.  Daily meditation practice over extended time realigned my mind, body, and spirit, combined with mindful organic food preparation brought me to thoroughly understand that art/food/exposure to nature/meditation are essential curatives for balanced life. These understandings are the foundation of my work from this date forward.

 

Artist Residency Programming: Wherever You GO, You ART originally based in Napa Valley, California and will be in Ohio for summer 2018. 

WHEVER You GO, You ART, is very special long term project that has been in the works for several years.  Considered a "satellite" program intended to move about wherever I go as I orbit the earth, practicing, sharing, and teaching art. Definitively it is an artist's residency that happens wherever I happen to be, eschewing the idea that art is made within the confines of a studio and embracing the idea that art can be/is made wherever you are... details at candycoated.org
