In my meditations, I've been watching how smoke and steam, rise and fall. It's beautiful and I finally was able to capture it in paper/ cardboard art... Also find a use for all those cardboard toilet paper rolls it seemed a waste of material to throw away. Art supplies can be anything and inspiration is everywhere if we are willing to stop and notice.

This smoke symbol can be the symbol of a #firehorse #lunarnewyear and the aftermath of fire willpower and grace of a horse 🐎 🔥
