art by Ren Adams
Fun, philosophical, and spirited work for the discerning (and playful) collector. From collage and sketchwork, to acrylic, Chinese brush painting, mixed media, pen & ink, and found object art, I hope to offer work that will bring laughter, enjoyment, tranquility, and enrichment.
My focus is on Chinese brush painting, which I do daily as part of my meditation. I'm also a Taoist and I find Chinese brush painting to be a centering, calming connection to the Tao... each painting is another step along the path.

"PlasticPumkin (aka Ren) is an artistic goddess who made my studio beautiful beyond my wildest dreams with a series of tropical botanicals, included my beloved giant sago in bloom.
Her worth is just breathtaking."
