China sketches – Qi/Life energy

Practicing Qigong has been part of my life for a few years now and ever since I started, figures appeared in my work.  They closely followed me in my explorations of Qigong. They express some of the movements I learned, or just overall feelings of being alive, of tapping into Qi, life energy, that exists within and around me.  Being one with wherever I am.
