'Within the spinning circle of life we are born.

The human heart too should always be kept

round and complete.'



- Nantembo (1839-1925)

In Zen Buddhism, the Enso brings to attention irony; an imperfect form that highlights the existence of non-existence.



In the Sisyphean quest to find reason for life, to find some purpose in existence; that, in turn, becomes purpose. A cyclical nature, neverending. A painted circle surrounding nothing; which in an effort to bring attention to the void, ends up creating something in that once-empty space.



Maybe self, like a circle of ink on paper grain, is not found but created after all.

I've been wanting to draw Zenyatta for the longest time. I've also been distracted by Warframe. So I figured, 'why not both?' and this happened. I'm kind of bummed I didn't draw a Syandana for him or put more detail in his 'frame', but I've been feeling creatively sapped lately.
