In the flow


nobody understands my not no Zen Zen
not even that crow's shattering bleak scream got it. 
Ikkyu 15C

Ace photographer Dave very kindly has given me some of his crow photos to use as models! This is the first I have used. The crow is in such a wonderful shape, such movement.....coming in to land. Today I used pen and ink to try and achieve a more scratchy look. Calligraphy makes up the body and background. Illegible, but endless thoughts scribed in a continuous flow. Not really thinking what I'm writing but letting the words form, one after the other. A running commentary of what is in my head.
