Bowls

From drawing as mindful practice class...focusing on a bowl...i invited the class to meditate for 5 min on their bowl, observing its size, shape, colors, patterns, inside, outside, location and then write/sketch the bowl in a variety of contexts...

as i was naming contexts/relationships/places i might find this bowl(a studio, kitchen, cereal, another bowl on top, different background, on a shelf, in a tree, incense holder, more polka dots, a spoon, a story about it, in my hand, with plates...)a story began to draw/write itself...its not so much the story itself that was interesting to me...it was the flow i found myself in....after the initial story, the bowl wanted to go on other adventures...
