From music to art and from Mind to SANE, we’re onto our next project.

Armadillo Central artist Jennifer Copley-May has just agreed to pledge 10% from each sale of her new Tao prints to The Fine Line Project.

Jennifer Copley-May Tao Armadillo Central

“This painting, which I have called Tao, symbolises for me the ever evolving universe and our lives in it.  Attitudes towards mental health/illness evolve too and they have long been a concern both for personal reasons and in the context of the wider world.

Taoism in its more pragmatic form has interested me for a long time. I recently dipped back into the ‘Tao of Politics, Lessons of the Masters of Huainan’, a book full of everyday wisdom, very profound and yet easy to read. The version I have has been translated and edited by Thomas Cleary. One aphorism seemed particularly relevant: “Those who comprehend the Tao are not focused only on themselves, they are also connected to the world.”

It seemed appropriate therefore to use Tao as my contribution to raising funds for The Fine Line Project.”

Tao, which has been reproduced from an original watercolour painting, is printed on heavyweight 310 gsm Hahnemühle Fine Art Paper using archival inks and is available in 2 sizes from www.armadillocentral.com.
