Transformation.
Flower. (Hana.) Life. (Ikiru.)
Amaterasu Art starts in the heart of nature. Taking pictures of nature from the heart as they naturally occur provides an opportunity to begin to learn to become in tune with the Universe. The process of learning to both receive and share an understanding of what your heart can see is much more important than skill or perfection.
Through watching the interplay of the Universe in the surrounding world, with practice a person can begin to hear and see what the Universe is reflecting back to them. They just have to take the time to learn how to listen, notice and see. As one does this, there is a transformation where they begin to discover that the Universe speaks very specifically in nature and in life. One finds that the real pictures - the Amaterasu art pieces - are the ones the Universe creates that are already there.
