Thanks Robyn,so glad you posted this information, I had no heard of his passing. I have his book "The Zen of Creativity" and refer to it often.

Your welcome Monte. I also love that book and recommend it often to fellow artists whether they have an interest in Zen or not - it has a lot to offer.

I feel very lucky to know and study with Daido Roshi's dharma heir. In fact, it feels downright amazing.
