God I love this painting:
"calligraphy" by Kazuaki Tanahashi. The title is "Dot." AND it's 30" x 36". The Zen flung ink style is pretty much at the basis of every piece of art I make these days, and have made for a long long time (though often it's not apparent).
i love the phrase "zen flung ink style"
