Hello, just a quick one today…I am feeling under the weather. Not sure if it is the usual depression or a bout of Trump Iran War whiplash fatigue.
Yup.

The Sky Dancing banner headline uses a snippet from a work by artist Tashi Mannox called 'Rainbow Study'. The work is described as a" study of typical Tibetan rainbow clouds, that feature in Thanka painting, temple decoration and silk brocades". dakinikat was immediately drawn to the image when trying to find stylized Tibetan Clouds to represent Sky Dancing. It is probably because Tashi's practice is similar to her own. His updated take on the clouds that fill the collection of traditional thankas is quite special.
You can find his work at his website by clicking on his logo below. He is also a calligraphy artist that uses important vajrayana syllables. We encourage you to visit his on line studio.

16 workers lost their lives in a deadly explosion at a Tennessee munitions plant, & now investigators have uncovered more than 100 safety violations. When companies ignore known dangers and put profit over people, lives are put at risk.Those families deserve answers, and they deserve accountability.
