A sample of Ajari Jomyo Tanaka's Shodo

Ajari Tanaka arrived for his annual visit to Vermont just last Wednesday evening.  Besides conducting a retreat and a dharma name event, he has been producing some very bold and distinctive brush work.  Here is a sample:

"The heart is the great artist"

"Peaceful face, lovely speaking"

"Emptiness"

"maitri"

(These last two are circa 2001 or 2002, but Ajari Tanaka just put the seal stamp on them today so are included here.)
















We are sure there will be more to come.  Enjoy and stay tuned...
