Rising Bodhisattva
This piece is a radiant invocation of Bodhisattva energy, painted against a swirling cosmic backdrop of blues, reds, and gold. At the center stands a serene divine figure—calm, grounded, and luminous—surrounded by a powerful halo of concentric rainbow rings. Rising from the crown is a vertical tower of faces, symbolizing ascension, compassion in all directions, and the infinite forms consciousness can take.
Black curling lines weave across the background like celestial vines, carrying small blossoms of light. The dotted white stars scattered through the sky give the entire painting a feeling of cosmic snowfall—quiet, sacred, eternal.
The color palette shifts from deep night-sky blue to fiery sunrise red, creating the sensation of a being who exists outside time, bridging night and dawn, heaven and earth. The layered textures, hand-cut motifs, and glowing halo create a mandala-like portal effect, drawing the viewer inward. Thx 4 looking! 😎
