Jane Karchmar has been looking after her own salvation with diligence for about fifty years. Her Path still stretches on . . . and on. While on the Path, she has meditated, practised yoga, practised martial arts, studied just about everything, chanted, given birth, painted, and earned a living. The paintings in The Lotus Path are acrylic on masonite and measure around three by four feet, but some vary from this pattern. They are in public and private collections, scattered throughout North America.
