Artist Michael Newhall is a long-time friend of Lion's Roar and Buddhadharma and art directors Liza Matthews and Seth Levinson, much of his art having appeared in both magazines over the years. Mr. Newhall offers "Rain Dance Pleonastic Buddhafield" to this year's bidders. 

"Rain Dance Pleonastic Buddhafield" is part of a series of amorphous buddhafield watercolors that were done at Kobun Chino Roshi's home temple in Kamo, Japan, in 2000.

Shoho Michael Newhall was ordained and transmitted by Kobun Chino Otogawa Roshi. Prior to his installation as Jikoji’s Resident Teacher, he taught art and Buddhism at Naropa University, the Art Institute of Chicago, and other universities in the midwest. He leads sesshins and meditation workshops at Zen centers in the U.S. and Europe. Shoho has also practiced and studied with Keibun Otogawa in Japan, Dainin Katagiri Roshi, and Tenshin Reb Anderson.
