Abstract sumi e painting Original, Zen style, with ink wash and both wet and dry brushstroke work by Marilyn Wells was inspired by the ancient book of Wisdom, the Tao te Ching…

"The Secret waits for the insight
Of eyes unclouded by longing…”
-Tao te Ching 1872S

As long as we are filled with inordinate desire and anxiety for safety, security, love, affection, esteem, power and control, we will not uncover the Secret of our own Eternal Presence, wherein we can walk in peace and never taste of death.

These paintings are each unique art works. Imperfections are to be expected and are the hallmark of original art and the artist's hand. Sizes of original mulberry paper painting may vary, each approximately 14” x 18” - mat size is 18” x 22”. Each comes with its own Certificate of Authentication, packaged in a clear sleeve.
