I love these - and I can now see how you see them (I think) - meditation shows you in your inner third eye. The wisdom of sacred geometries from within.
In my earlier mandalas, I have used the Buddhist aspects process of making the yantra, infused with universal symbology and sacred geometries . . . however my present explorations in the meditative qualities of calligraphy and mandalas have also open new horizons for me. Especially in the context of the traditions of the ancient peoples of the Philippines and the script called the Baybayin
I am glad that these too have resonated with many people, including yourself
And I do agree that some chilling base music does go well with my works
My wife and I used to teach this in self actualization workshops in the Philippines, and we might start doing it again by next year
Do await the international release of the film "The Bladed Hand" which is about Filipino Martial Arts . . . I am help support this film, as well as doing my own research on FMA history
I am flattered that you have thought of my work as you browse through an art store. The black canvasses do sound interesting, however I do find the black boards that I use quite handy for both shipping and storage (especially with the amount of works I am churning out lately). I have also found black oslo paper and bristol board here in the Philippines, in fact I have planned to bind the sheets into a black sketch pad. And many of my early works (2009) were done on the black paper (8.5x11 inches).
Still my thanks for your thoughtfulness . . .
I have good news, a person did contact me to have my tarot done as a limited edition there in the USA, I will inform you as soon as that pushes through. All that he is waiting for is for me to finalize my new address, so that he can ship the copies to me
