A companion piece to Nature - Part One, using a quote attributed to the ancient Chinese philosopher Lao Tzu 'Nature does not hurry, but everything is accomplished'.
The piece uses circular and overlapping themes developed with a colour palette of wood-brown and leaf-green. In this piece, the colouring of the geometric constructions is inverted, with the lines framing the text and the overlapping circles within an empty space. The gold leaves are intended to convey the beauty of nature, gently growing.
Simplified Roman capitals and fraktur scripts.

About the artist
Toks Ojo
Toks started his calligraphic journey in 2019, copying a Foundational hand exemplar he had found on the internet -- individual letters at first, then words, and onto quotes. Shortly after, he discovered online workshops which gave him the opportunity to participate in classes with calligraphy tutors all over the world and he has not stopped since. His current work focuses mainly on broad-edge scripts such as italic, blackletter (Fraktur), Roman capitals and foundational hand.
