About My Work

Before I became a monk I made a living creating art. When I took the five Buddhist precepts in 2002 I was given the dharma name Do'an (pronounced Doe-ahn), which loosely means "path of the eye". From that moment on, the focus of my art shifted toward contemplative practice, in which I used meditation and breath to facilitate my creativity. I studied Asian brush painting and calligraphy techniques, which had a great influence on my painting style and composition. In 2008 I discovered fiber. I learned to knit, spin yarn, needle felt and weave.
While I no longer work as a full time artist, I still create. Much of my creative work is a meditation practice.
My interest is in attempting to straddle the line between art and craft through my creations. I am also exploring if an object created through contemplative practice be used as a tool for meditation and mindful awareness.
