A wave about to crash, Mt. Fuji small and still in the distance. Peace not as the absence of force but as the stillness that holds while everything else moves.

Large luminous rectangles with soft edges, nothing else. Rothko said he wanted viewers to cry. The paintings produce silence - the visual equivalent of the breath you take when you finally stop.

Twenty years of painting the same pond at Giverny. The world reduced to water, light, and reflection. Peace as the practice of returning to the same still surface until you finally see it.
