Inviting the Bell

Inviting the Bell

Inviting the Bell – 32″ x 44″ – Acrylic on Canvas – Sold

Inviting the bell is a Buddhist term that means centering and quieting one’s inner self before gently yet firmly striking the bell that calls people, invites people into meditation. This painting reminds me of how once struck, a bell like a Tibetan bowl continues to ring, to sing until the sound slowly fades to nothingness.
