“Enso/Zen Circles” meditation with artist Lisa Gyako Schaewe
Meditation then painting with horsehair brushes on rice paper. The enso, zen circle, is unity in breath, body and mind.
About the Artist
Lisa’s view and process as an artist are deeply informed by her years as a Zen student. She engages in creative process as a form of meditation practice. For her, art making is a way to appreciate the potential held within the open space of not knowing and to directly experience the sacred, interconnected ground of being. In addition to her work as an artist, Lisa is a licensed professional counselor and art psychotherapist maintaining a private practice in Boulder, CO. She is adjunct faculty at Naropa University and facilitates Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction groups and workshops combining contemplative practice and creative process. www.108lotuses.com
