I am a visual artist, poet, fiction writer and blogger. I live on the East Coast of the U.S. but in my mind I'm usually in Japan. My art is about the wabi-sabi aesthetic, about zen relaxation of the mind in looking and about pareidolia. No image really has boundaries or edges. That is the First Illusion, Thanks for looking and I'm very happy if you found anything here you wanted to add into the designing of your life. Be well!
