Title: Life on the lotus
Technique: Oil pastel on Baron Kent paper
Size: 4200x5930mm

In Buddhism, there is an idea that lotus flowers bloom in the Pure Land. (I'm not particularly Buddhist). For me, the lotus flower has a meaning that tells me, ``There's no need to worry.’’. This picture depicts a person freed from hardship and bondage and truly enjoy-ing life. I would like to believe that we are protected by a great existence that cannot be seen with the naked eye. I wanted this picture to not only be fun and happy, but also somehow mysterious and mysterious.
