Japanese Zenga inspired painting. Painted on light grey paper with fermented acrylic ink technique. Inspired by the paintings of Sengai, Hakuin and Jakuchu. I find the apparent simplicity inspiring. I feel the study of these Zenga and also ancient Chinese paintings enlighten the mind and clarify the thought processes. That is the point, is it not of the meditation.
