Floral Patterns in the Newar Buddhist Painting Tradition
Every sentient being is born with the seed of Buddhahood within. To truly realize this potential, one must nurture this seed. The lotus flower, a key motif in Buddhist art, symbolizes this profound state.
Floral patterns reflect heavenly beauty and ambiance, conveying a deep interconnection between nature and the divine. The artistic vision in Buddhist paintings flourishes alongside a rich variety of flowers and vegetation.
During this online course, students will not only learn how to draw different kinds of lotuses, but they will also learn to paint and shade them based on the traditional Newar Buddhist painting tradition, Paubha, and understand the symbolism and philosophy behind it.
Students will have an opportunity to work in tandem with the tutor in creating many different kinds of lotuses and enjoy the process of painting and shading.
