 In February 2018 I traveled to Global Tea Hut's free tea center, Tea Sage Hut. I spent 10 days taking a course and then 10 more days serving a course. Even though February was my month of tea travel, travel is not an isolated event. I felt like I spent a month preparing and readying beforehand and a month processing and recovering afterwards.
I brought back this large paper from an art store in Taiwan, almost double the width of a usual scroll, as you cut it yourself. I thought since these three months have blended together for me, I would allow them to be expressed in that way as well, each taking up a third of the paper. I used an ink stick I bought in Taiwan, mixed with each of the tea of the months, for the ink on each enso.

1/5/2018 2 Comments Tea Wayfarer and Tea Spirit In June 2017, Global Tea Hut published an article in their monthly Tea and Tao magazine that included 8 paintings and reflections I had made, inspired by their monthly tea sharing subscription. You can see that article here (pages 54-57 "Art of the Month") as Global Tea Hut considers their work an offering to the world and make their magazine's past issues available for free online.
In that same issue I was also featured as the Tea Wayfarer of the month, a section of the magazine where they introduce people in the community. I've copied it for you here in case you are interested in my tea story. |
