Cowra, Australia - Japanese Garden Exhibit of Original Art by Dr. John Diamond, M.D.

September 1-30, 2010

Opening reception September 4th at 2:00pm,
presentation by Dr. Diamond on Art and Healing at 2:30pm.

Greetings!

The Stillpoint Paintings of Dr. John Diamond, one of the world's leaders in the field of the Arts and Healing, will be presented in a special exhibition at the Cowra, Australia Japanese Garden. The artist has spent over 40 years perfecting the flow and grace in the movement of his hand and brush, and the refining of his intention, as you will witness in the beauty of these works.

This collection of fine black and white and color works done with oriental black ink and acrylics on various mediums including traditional scrolls, represent a new philosophy in the Arts - paintings that are done with the intention of being therapeutic for those viewing them.

Strong, graceful and free-flowing, these works are done as an Action Meditation - involving the outward action of painting while keeping the stillness within. Traditional scrolls combine with specially framed pieces to offer the best of East and West, ancient tradition and modern freedom of expression.

Inspiration:

All of these paintings are created after deep meditation by Dr. Diamond with the intention of conveying healing to the viewer. The sources of inspiration are many and varied - traditional Japanese and Chinese literati painters, Daoist and Zen philosophers, modern expressionists such as Jackson Pollock and numerous other master painters of the generations. The greatest historical inspiration is, for example, the shaman-healers who painted the cave walls of Lascaux, artists imbued with a fervent sense of purpose - to create a work of art that would inspire healing, beauty and peace.
