FRUITLESS would I just rather own a body hollow floating forever upon life’s shallow stream? or would I rather bravely follow my deepest heart’s perfected dream? I light my candle, breathe it into blazing fire I melt my walls and armor, yes, I never tire I shine all mirrors crystal clear and spotless clean until I see beyond my petty, truth-conceiling screen look, here I stand, awesome to behold what does it matter that I’m young or that I’m old. The oilpainting “Fruitless” presents a Meditational Password into the enlightened essence of all there is. This Print are a limited edition of only 108, NO OPEN EDITION. 108 is the number of spiritual completion. Mantras and prayers are traditionally counted with Malas or Rosaries, consisting of 108 beads each. Since ancient liberating secrets are concealed within Pono's artwork, she wishes her prints to circulate around the globe like Rosaries of Freedom Chant mantras. This artwork is museum grade giclee on canvas, numbered and hand signed by the artist, and included is the artist's story.
