tentatively titled VAJRA MUNDI
can you see the crown over their head?
or the perfect star ? or the chalice at their feet?
i welcome any comments or analysis
the flowers need to bloom...
What flowers should bloom from the crown?
Maybe lotus flowers?
I daren't say anymore. It's an awesome work of art that puts me in mind of your poem
Impressions and reflections ~
I would feel a fraud offering any kind of analysis....
your work is based in a knowledge and understanding of things I know nothing about...
and yet...
Edit: I just clicked on some of the links and am completely overcome...
You said we can make comments and I do really want to talk about this painting because no work of art has ever intrigued or moved me as much as this one. I can only give an honest response though. I am no artist, and am not a scholar.
The first thing I notice is the Celtic influence, first in the frame you've given it and in the intertwining symmetry around the 2 figures who themselves also intertwine so that the boundaries that separate each are blurred (not the word I want). I know the turtle, the Earth (which is emptier than the real one) the star and the chalice and the blocks and the honeycomb all have a significance but my ignorance prevents them from speaking their messages to me.
I love the way their feet are touching and the delicate ropes and chains that echo the vines that run round them and through them. The vines seem to connect them to everything else that is and then the smaller connections are more personal, including the ones at the bottom leading out which connect the painting to whoever looks at it.
And the extraordinary figures? Transparent, dénudé bound to each other and bound to all life, tell of love and eternal branches and off-shoots of branches and roots and interconnection and collective responsibility and perfect harmony and wisdom. The artist has made them huge. Bigger than the earth. And yet their human-ness and all the fragility, weakness and imperfection this entails is somehow visible in the expressions on their faces....
I'm going to stop there.
My thoughts have got too muddled.
I would really love to listen to you tell me about it.What flowers should bloom from the crown?
try this web site http://www.weddingbokay.com/symbolism.ht…
it tell you the meaning of flowers so you can pick the one that best represents the idea you want to tell.
The painting is really creative
I can see sort of a crown, and the chalice, but I don't see a perfect star
I see the top 3 points of a star, but not the bottom 2 points
Absolutely beautiful painting! It is very spiritual and has so much understanding for those who understand!
Peace.
It is finished, no need to add anything else to it.
surreal and abstract at the same time. Your painting is lovely. I am thinking of a new birth, although, analytically I only see the roots coming out..more so like corn. And you know what corn represents...
Quite a creative, unusual and remarkable piece.
