Drawing - Pen And India Ink On Mulberry Paper

Description

Another in the series Circles of Light: this abstract drawing is done with pen and India ink and graphite, with silver pencil highlights. The drawing illustrates the impressions from Thomas Merton's writing:............................Closer and clearer than any wordy master
Thou, inward Stranger, whom I have never seen,
Deeper and cleaner
Than the clamorous ocean,
Seize up my silence
Hold me in Thy Hand!
***
M�s cerca y m�s claro que cualquier maestro verboso
Tu, Extranjero por dentro, quien yo nunca he visto,
M�s profundo y m�s limpio
Que el mar clamoroso,
! Agarra mi silencio
Gu�rdame en Tu Mano!

�Hear my prayer, O LORD, and give ear to my cry�For I am a stranger with Thee, a Sojourner like all my fathers��Psalm 39:12
�Se�or, escucha mi oraci�n, �presta o�do a mis lamentos�! Yo soy para ti un extranjero, un ave de paso, como mis antepasados�� Salmos 39:12
(�Stranger�, The Strange Islands, from Thomas Merton Reader, NY: Doubleday, 1989, p. 420-421)
