Peace Walkers

 I am working on a Peace Walking Monks series. Each piece is an original. I will not make prints so they are one of a kind.

I was so very inspired by the monks who walked with such calm and peace. The Walk for Peace was a historic, 2300 mile pilgrimage from Texas to Washington DC, This 110 day journey aimed to foster interfaith harmony, universal compassion and peace during a time of global and domestic uncertainty. 

Fifteen to twenty monks walked 20-23 miles a day, ate only one meal a day, slept on the ground and were accompanied by Aloka, a rescued peace dog. The journey drew widespread attention across the U.S. and world.

The Peace Walkers
