Meditation Series: (8/8) Musings with Lines, LA, 2025
We’re not in harms way where we live in LA (it’s a big county), but we can smell the smoke from the fires to the south. We can also see the smoke on the horizon. The wind is high and even though we don’t have the fires, there are many power outages in this area. […]
Meditation Series: (7/8) Musings with Lines, LA, 2025
I began this one as a maze with straight lines, starting at the lower left. Then I continued with curved lines until the upper right when I made those jagged lines (I had fire in mind, since I live in LA). I inserted my linear “star” icon, choosing to interrupt the rays with the surfaces […]
Meditation Series: (6/8) Musings with Lines, LA, 2025
I first envisioned the warped surface. Since the planar surface brought me into the realm of three dimensions, I also brought my 2-dimensional star figure along. “White noise” comprises the bottom part of this figure, presumably from which the 3-D figures arose.
Meditation Series: (5/8) Musings with Lines, LA, 2025
The first line on the left side of the sketch was perfect. However the second line on the right side was not inspired by the first but rather by another idea I had in mind. They did not go well together. Most of the rest of the drawing, at least on the right side was […]
Meditation Series: (4/8) Musings with Lines, LA, 2025
I began with the line with the ‘V’ about a quarter way up from the bottom to divide ‘up’ from ‘down’. The radiating lines in the upper right came next. I added the (high frequency) lines underneath the dividing line and encased the star-like lines with a concentric standing circular waves. I like the contrast […]
Meditation Series: (3/8) Musings with Lines, LA, 2025
I’ve seen Native American silver pieces of animals with a spiral design inside their bodies. I was told that symbol represented their life force. I began this sketch with such a spiral. I couldn’t imagine an appropriate body for this life force to inhabit, so I left it as it was. I just glanced at […]
Meditation Series: (1/8) Musings with Lines, LA, 2025
I’m proud to begin the 12th year of daily blog posts on this blog. I’ve tried each day to present a visual rendering of something interesting from my external environment or something from my internal domain that I endeavor to make visible. I start the new year with line drawings. Before each sketch, I have […]
