[danny72]

What a great welcome! Thnx all! And thank you for the great comments.

I have ordered a print, can't wait for it to be delivered.

En bedankt aan de 'Dutchies' wat leuk dat er ook Nederlanders hier zijn

Ik ben niet echt uit Nederland vandaan. Wel geboren(Den Helder), maar woon al heeeeel lang in Zweden :-)

How could one be anything but gentle in the face of this peaceful painting. The selection of elements is very serene and beautiful. It speaks of ideals. The color saturation implies a vivid richness that goes deeper than the superficial. I also feel this is like a romantic poem, a visual poem, in which the items are metaphors in perfected and refined states, perhaps even metaphors of the divine essence within everything, as the Buddha was supposed to have attained that level of understanding. And just as an asides, this Buddha appears to be female. So I'm thinking it's something of a self-portrait in spirit.

On top of all the references and associations I personally make with this, as a painting it's gorgeous.

So Brava! A profound work.
