Life is Pure

Life is Pure by Shobha Iyer The lotus represents purity of the body, speech, and mind as if floating above the muddy waters of attachment and desire. . . . The original Pink Lotus In acrylics is inspired by the miraculous nature of the lotus flower to grow in any situation. To start, the lotus has a life cycle unlike any other plant. With its roots latched in mud, it submerges every night into river water and miraculously re-blooms the next morning, sparklingly clean. In many cultures, this process associates the flower with rebirth and spiritual enlightenment. This painting captured the mystical beauty!
