CHRIS'
ARTWORK
|
This is a
collection
of mostly
doodles and
some
intentional
art pieces
by Chris.
Some of the
doodles are
on odd paper
scraps, or
from note
pads from
hospitals,
since both
his wives
were nurses.A
few
explanations
may
help:There
are a lot
of “Good
Morning,
Sweetie”
notes
because when
we lived out
in Arizona
from
1992-93, I
worked the
night shift
and he
worked
during the
day, so he
wasn’t
around when
I woke up.He
had a few
Tibetan
names, only
2 of which
he shared
publicly:
Karma Sherab
Norbu, and
Jangchup
Dawa. His
usual way of
signing his
works was
his
lightening
bolt symbol,
which came
from a dream
he had as a
child and
about which
he
eventually
wrote a
great
spiritual
poem. Chris
loved
writing
Tibetan
words-- I’m
sure the
Tibetan if
it appears
in the
corner is
his Tibetan
name, Karma
Sherab
Norbu.You
will notice
several
drawings
feature
shoes with
laces or a
buckle and
separate
heels,
because I
often
recommend
this to my
patients who
have back,
leg and foot
problems!
