The Time is Now: 8x10 Green Framed Art
Alan Watts often reminded us that the future is a concept—it doesn’t exist. Our minds are constantly chasing tomorrow, worrying about what’s next, or replaying the past. But the truth, as Watts so beautifully put it, is that there is only the present—only an eternal now.
This one-of-a-kind framed artwork is carefully designed and created by Monica Bond, merging precision with the irreplaceable touch of handcraft. The process begins with an intricate pen-plotted design, meticulously drawn using a plotting machine. But that’s just the foundation. Each piece is then re-inked by hand, ensuring depth, richness, and individuality. No two are exactly alike. The geometric patterns and flowing symmetry echo the very essence of Watts’ teachings: time is not something to grasp, but something to experience. A single pearl-like detail serves as a focal point, grounding the viewer in the now—just as Watts intended.
This print measures 8×10 inches and is framed in an 11×14 frame with a mat, elevating its presence as a statement piece. Every step of its creation—from digital precision to hand-finished artistry—reflects the intention of mindfulness, reminding us to stop overthinking, let go of imagined tomorrows, and fully immerse ourselves in the present moment. Each piece is framed in a high-quality solid wood frame with real glass, ensuring durability and a beautifully polished presentation.
The last image is an example of an 8 × 10 piece of art in an 11 × 14 frame, just like the piece in this listing.
