My artist Brother

Konsaeng Chris Everson follows his Zen spirit. He writes poetry and publishes books of his uniquely personal poems. Konsaeng composes music - primarily for his favorite "axe" his toy piano and is featured on You Tube. Check out his piece called "Simple Study" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d9AO1P66xLQ.

Kongsaeng is also a painter, often working on found materials in acrylics. Although it took him a long time to warm up to the idea and give up pen and paper, he now also does digital paintings on the computer.
The painting above is one of my favorites titled "The Old Lady Dances"

I have to hand it to my brother. While he doesn't make much money for what he does, he pursues it passionately every day.
