SUMI INK, CASEIN AND ENCAUSTIC ON PAPER BOARD 12'' x 14'', Richard Kirsten (1920), WA. Titled ''Eroding Images'' on the verso. Signed lower right. Richard Kirsten Daiensai: Seattle artist, painter, printmaker, sculptor, and Zen Buddhist priest. Daiensai has spent several months each year for the past 49 years wandering through Japan and Korea. All his paintings and prints are done in the quiet and solitude of these retreats, thus creating art that reflects the divine energy that exists in all things. Often, the spiritual quality of his work is tempered with a sense of cosmic joy and warm humor.
