I genuinely do! I want to know what your reference was, or was it purely from recall? I like that no hard black shades were used to bring depth and instead you varied the colour. This always results in a better image, imo. Black shading often makes hand rendered images too much like a simulacra of life.

It has the traditional balanced form of the Buddhist lotus position, juxtaposed with the Addidas stripe on the border of the robe - forcing they eye to settle in balance as it traces the stripes, and the up to the sash and symbol. There's a fluid visual harmony in the irony of such a combination - Buddhism is equinimity and balance. Desire / aversion. But then the brand Addidas is about desire, status, attachment.

Brilliant chicanery 😈

@Natasha Tori Maru

I had to look up "chicanery"

But there was no trickery involved here. To put it plainly, it was a statement of finding peace through meditation, even within the blatant materialist culture that is so prevalent, and which is all about attachment and desire, symbolised by the obvious branding. It's about not judging a book by it's cover, as a heavily influenced fashion victim, may also find peace through spiritual practices. Hahaha

We’re all Buddhas (persons)  walking, observing as the characteristic figure of modern city life.

@TruthFreedom hahahaha well, there you go - my interpretation was off the mark. One of the best things about art is the symbols mean something different for everyone. 

Thank you for sharing 😊

I thought similarly.
